What Indicates A Sore Throat And White Dots In Mouth And Throat After A Fever?

My 13 year old daughter had a 104 temp for 24 hours last week, accompanied by a headache and body aches. We took her to urgent care and she tested negative for influenza so they sent us home. Six days later she is complaining of a very sore throat and has an alarming number of small, white pinhead size dots all over the roof of her mouth and back of her throat. Help?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
It appears to be the follicular tonsillitis, and pharyngitis.It may be the streptococcal infection.
The first one is the sub clinical stage,and the second one may be the actual infection.
I advise you to consult an E.N.T. surgeon for diagnosis and treatment.
i usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms erythromycin,phenylephrine, citrizine, and paracetamol.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
