Found a few tiny white spots in the back of my throat. could this be the first sign of strep?

Check for sxs: Maybe or maybe viral. Watch for symptoms. Sxs of strep throat can include: large, red painful tonsils with white exudates; small red dots on the roof of the mouth; swollen lymph nodes on the neck; fever, headache, rash, difficulty swallowing, fatigue & rash. For significant sore throat with swollen tonsils / lymph nodes – see physician & get a strep throat test. Antibiotics are needed for strep.
