Based on the history and images you have shared, though these doesn't look very alarming however these small lesions can be petechial hemmoraghes which are due to small capillary ruptures which can occur here due go excessive coughing or sneezing or deranged clotting profile.
Signs of fungal or viral infection doesn't seem to exist however if you look deeply, you xan appreciate mildly swollen tonsils and infammation of posterior pharyngeal wall and this can all be due to acute bacterial infection and it may require a course of antibiotics like augmentin or azithromycin as well as anti inflammatory drugs like acetaminophen or ibuprofen alongwith anti histamines like cetrizine or loratidine.
