What Could Be The Reason For Having Swollen Tonsils And Huge Red Bumps On The Back Of My Tongue?

I woke up yesterday with a very sore throat and my voice sounded different. I looked in the mirror and saw that the back of my throat, the dangly thing, and part of my gums are yellow. I also noticed my tonsils are swollen and hurt and that I have huge red bumps on the back of my tongue. What could this be?
