I had a scab like thing on my epiglottis 3 weeks ago doctor gave me an antibiotic for it and it disappeared! In the meantime i have had kidney stones wich were very painful and it is taking me ages to recover and the scab is back! I am only 35 years of age i eat well go to gym a few times a week and have never been so knocked out by sickness in my life before! I do smoke though!
It is necessary performing a throat discharge bacterial culture for possible strep infection, which could lead to this clinical situation.
The situation is not related to the kidney stones. It is also necessary checking for oral fungal infection. You should discuss with your doctor on the above tests.
