My 5 year old has white spots on her tonsils and a fever of at least 101.3. She has had a fever for at least 2 days and has complained about her throat for 3 days. the strep test just came back negative. They are sending it out for culture. They did not give her antibiotics because test was negative. The Dr. was very surprised the test came back negative. She is prone to getting strep throat. If it is not strep, what else would cause very white spots on her tonsils? Thanks!
