What Are The Causes For Sore Throat, Bumps And Film On Tongue?
I have a sore throat and just noticed that i have bumps on my tongue. Do these go together or should i worry about something else? My daughter just went to doctor today and had a positive strep test. also, i always seem to have a film on my tongue what would that be?

Hello
The sore throat along with the bumps go together and maybe due to the strep infection. The film on the tongue is not related to the strep infection and maybe due to reduced hydration. Please meet your ent doctor for further examination and advice as you will need to start on antibiotics.
