Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of sore throat with white spots that can be pus pockets can be due to bacterial infection in throat. I would suggest you to consult ENT Specialist as you will require thorough evaluation. You should take combination of antibiotic Levofloxacin along with nasal decongestants. Drink Warm liquids like tea or warm water with honey. You need anti-inflammatory medication such as Levocetrizine as well. You should incorporate some lifestyle changes like avoid spicy, fried and oily food. Avoid cold beverages. Get adequate rest and do salt water gargles several times a day. Drink plenty of water to keep the throat moist and prevent dehydration.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
