What Causes Throat Pain With White Bumps On The Tonsils?

I noticed yesterday my throat was a little sore, bt I did nothing to it. Today the same thing so I decide to look down my thraot with a flashlight and noticed some little white bumps near my tonsils. Could these little white bumps be tonsil stone, an std or both?

hi,
looks like you have throat infection.
do not worry.
usually it is viral , hence you will need only symptomatic treatment.
take pain killers like tylenol or ibuprofen after checking your dose.
