Hi, I have circumvallate papillae, an extremely sore throat with red bumps lining the back of my throat, also the left side is inflamed. It hurts to swallow, there are inflamed off whitish colored pockets behind my molars and before my tonsils and there is one white spot on each of my tonsils. I had a headache and slight fever for the past two days and some chills.. What is it and what should I do??
