Bumpy throat: any other symptoms? - fever or post nasal drip? - sounds like you are developing a bacterial sore throat ? strep. The white spots may be pus draining from lymph glands in the throat (commonly called exudates). If you have no other symptoms - try salt water gargles - 1 tsp of table salt to 4 oz of warm water - gargle and spit out do this several times a day. Good luck
