Very sore throat and white at the back of my throat. had my tonsils removed when i was younger ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. can check throat: New throat pain can be from a strep throat infection (antibiotics are needed), a cold or influenza (antibiotics usually not used), or from some other cause such as allergies or thrush. Usually, a person sees the doctor if the sore throat is bothersome, recurrent, or doesn't go away quickly (mainly to check for strep throat). A couple days of acetaminophen or throat lozenges can decrease pain.
