What Causes Yellowish Soft Palate With Red Blotches, Headache And Fever?

I have a yellowish soft palate with red blotches here and there. A few white dots/spots on the back of my throat, a mild fever, a mild/moderate headache, congestion, and fatigue. I sometimes sneeze, and ive been drinking tea and swallowing honey which seems to slightly help. I am 16 and female, please help.

It is likely to be caused by viral illness. The most common viruses affecting the throat and upper respiratory tract are Influenza viruses.

In addition to what you are doing now, you must also do warm saline or betadine gargling of your throat thrice daily.

Take antihistamines like Tablet Zyrtec 10mg at night for 3 nights.

Get well soon.
