Hello,
Well, first of all do not worry as it is not Cancer. A white ulcer with white discharge that is probably pus is due to infection only and you are been diagnosed correctly.
The white ulcer is a pus pocket secondary to infection. As you have started taking the medication since 4 days you need not to worry as it will get better soon.
You should continue the antibiotics for a week and along with it do warm saline gargles and antiseptic mouthwash gargles.
Take soft meals and drink plenty of fluids. Do not worry as it is nothing serious and you will get better soon.
You can also get a throat swab culture done to confirm about infection as it will further relieve your anxiety.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Honey Arora
