Hi XXXX
Thanks for your query at HCM!
I am Dr. Sheetal Verma an Infectious Disease Specialist answering to your query!
I went through your query and understand your concern.

You are probably suffering from infectious mononucleosis which is a contagious illness caused by the Epstein-Barr virus that can affect the liver, lymph nodes, and oral cavity. No need to go back to doctor. Wait for test results. While the severity and length of illness varies, most people diagnosed with mononucleosis will be able to return to their normal daily routines within two to three weeks.

Hope I have answered your question. If you would like some more information I will be happy to provide. You can also write a review for me. Wish you good health
Take care! Wish you best of Health.
