Can a sore throat and red patch to the side of my tongue lead to a conclusion of possible hiv symptoms?

Not necessarily : You really should go to your physician and have that checked out.

Yes , but...: Yes those could be symptoms of HIV infection but there could be many other reasons for the symptoms as well. If you think you may have been exposed to HIV get tested asap, and get on retroviral meds if you test positive. Either way you should get a dr. To check you out.
