Hi,
You seem to be taking self medication including antibiotics; if you had taken Levofloxacin a few weeks ago, you should not be taking it again thinking it will cure your current throat condition. The white dots without any other symptoms seem to be innocuous. Ideally observe for a couple of days for any changes in that area. If symptoms worsen, you will have to be examined.
