Sore Throat, Diagnosed Viral Infection And Prescribed Clarithromycin. It Become Worse Found White Spot On Tonsil
hello I went to the doctor 3 days ago for a sore throat and he thought it was a viral infection and prescribed me Clarithromycin. It is the third day and my throat seems almost worse than when I went to the doctors. I looked in the back of my throat and saw white spots on my tonsils. It hurts to talk, eat, and swallow. I have taken my prescription and throat spay and nothing seems to work. Please help me
