What Causes White Spots At The Back Of Throat Along With Bleeding Tonsils?

Hello,
Two days ago I suddenly had throat pain followed by body aches, chills and a fever.
The next morning I vomited once.
I ended up seeing a doctor. They did a few quick tests...strep, flu and mono which and all ended up negative.
Fever is down today I've been taking Tylenol but my throat still hurts. I just noticed today that I have white spots and a little bleeding on my tonsils. What should I do?

Hi.
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain white spots on tonsils along with sore throat seems to be due to Bacterial throat infection and white spots seems to be pus pockets..
Bleeding seems to be due to infection and inflamed tissue has a tendency to bleeding on slight stimulation..
I would suggest you to take a course of antibiotics like Levofloxacin or Azithromycin..
Take anti-inflammatory painkillers like Ibuprofen to relieve pain and inflammation..
Continue taking Tylenol to reduce fever..
You can also do warm saline gargles and steam inhalation..
Avoid spicy, chilled and hard foods..
Suck throat lozenges and chew Vitamin C pellet..
Drink warm water and take soft diet..
In case of no improvement consult an ENT expert and get evaluated..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
