Is It Dangerous To Have Lump On Throat?

Hi, A couple of days ago some white lumps appeared in the back of my throat and I thought that my glands in my groin were swollen. Since this my throat on one side has inflammed with tender teeth and I have also noticed that my glands are also swollen in my armpits and neck. Do I have anything to worry about?
