Hello!
Thank you for using HealthcareMagic!
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
Your symptoms of sore throat,yellow color on the roof of your mouth might be related with an viral infection ,bacterial infection or a fungal infection of your mouth.
This is hard to tell without examining your mouth.
You should consult a doctor so he can evaluate you , perform a physical examination. You may need to do some tests including a throat culture to determine what is specifically causing your symptoms in order to give you the right treatment.
If it is an bacterial infection he will prescribe you a course of antibiotics.If it is a fungal infection he will prescribe you antifungal medication.
In the meantime you can gargle salty water 3-4 times a day.
Hope it was of help.
Let me know if you have other questions or doubt to clarify.I will be happy to assist you further.
Kind Regards!
