Hello Doctors,
It started seven days ago with my throat starting to hurt. I got a fever between 102-104F and ear pain on the same side that i had throat pain. I was taking amoxicillian but the strep test was negative. Now, I am still sick with the lymph nodes in my neck swollen, tonsils on both sides have white spots/patches, thick saliva (mucous consistency), chest pain and my tongue feels pricky or tingly in some spots like i ate a slice of pineapple. I think i saw a white bump near the tip of my tongue a few days ago. I have no ear infection. Any mucous from nose and throat is otherwise clear. Currently taking ibuprofene and not on antibiotics.
