I have red sores at the back of my throat and my throat is very sore. i don't have a fever, but it hurts to swallow. what is this?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Herpangina: Usually viral tonsillitis...Herpangina, mono, herpes stomatitis which usually resolves but takes forever ...Bacterial causes are strep throat etc... Quick visit and testing should pinpoint the culprit ! in the meantime lemon & honey gargle works great! regards!
