Your symptoms, especially the white spots on your tonsils, strongly suggest tonsillitis, which can be bacterial (like strep throat) or viral. You should see a doctor for a throat swab, as bacterial infections require prescription antibiotics. For temporary symptom relief, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen or acetaminophen to reduce fever and ease throat and ear pain. For nasal congestion, an oral decongestant (like pseudoephedrine) or a saline nasal spray can help. Rest, stay hydrated, and gargle with warm salt water to soothe your throat. Please consult a healthcare provider for an accurate diagnosis.
