Suggest Treatment For Swollen Tonsils

I ve never had strep throat before but I ve had symptoms of a cold for the past 2 days and my tonsils are a little swollen with some small white dots on them, and blood vessels on the roof of my mouth. I ve had tonsil stones for awhile and even got a couple out 2 days ago and then these dots appeared. My throat barely hurts, so I m just wondering what s wrong and I m contagious? I don t have a fever.

Hello
This sounds like early tonsillitis. Can be viral infection. Please see an ENT you might require antibiotic.
Do gargles with Tantum Verde mouth was, ibuprofen will bring down fever and pain.
