What Causes Sore Throat And Pus On Tonsils?

pus in the back of my throat!
hello, two days ago I woke up with a sore throat and recently discovered I have white pus like mucus on my tonsils and now they feel swollen! I haven been sexually active before and had oral sex over a month ago. could this be an STD?? I'm going to the Dr. tomorrow at 10 but before I go I want to know what I have! I'm scared..
