Suggest Treatment For Cold And Sore Throat

Hi, I have had an on and off cold for 2 weeks now and it s pretty much gone now but I ve been getting a sore throat in the evenings. Today it s more painful and I noticed that at the very back of my tongue and going down my throat I can feel bumps. It s actually the bumps that are causing the pain. I can t see them because they are too far back. I ve tried throat numbing spray and gargling salt water but they re not helping
