Get a throat culture: It sounds like you have an infection in the back of your throat, but based on your description it could be thrush, viral, or even bacterial. The only way to sort this out and get on the appropriate therapy is to see a Dr and have throat examined. A throat swab is the only way to really rule out a bacterial infection.
