A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. can check throat: Throat symptoms can be from a strep throat infection (antibiotics are needed), a cold or influenza or mono (antibiotics usually not used), or from some other cause such as allergies, irritants, or stomach acid reflux. Usually, a person sees the doctor if the sore throat is bothersome, recurrent, or doesn't go away quickly. Bigger problems with tonsils can be evaluated by an ENT doctor.

I don't have tonsils but can see red bumps on the back of the throat with blood vessels on them. Is that normal? My throat doesn't itch and it isn't sore either.
