Hello,
It has been some weeks that my right tonsil is strange.

It is swollen.
One crypt is very swollen with white pus in it.
Some crypts located in tonsil's back-side are filled with white pus as
well.

It does not hurts at all, it's just a little bit sensitive.

I do not have problems to swallow or breath.

Do you have any clues?

Infection?

Yes, it must be an infection, but I haven't got any fever.
And it does not hurt.

The best course of action would be to see a doctor. The doctor
can determine if there is or is not an infection.
It's possible that you may develop a fever in the next couple
of days if you don't get treatment. In addition, if you do have
an infection--you could develop Strep Throat.
You may want to google
Tonsillitis (Pharyngitis)
.
