A member asked:

Dizzy white spots in throat pain from back of neck into face on left side. what could this be?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

?Strep infection: Sounds like an upper respiratory tract infection which has involved the middle ear to create dizziness. Could possibly be due to herpes. You should be seen and examined to be diagnosed.
