What Causes Throat Nevi With Dysphagia?

I have had small white spots on the back of my throat for several days. It hurts a little to swallow but I feel okay and do not have a fever. My tongue also feels a little weird. I went to Walgreens clinic and they said it was caused by allergies and post nasal drip. They did not prescribe anything and said it would go away on it own in 7-10 days. Does this sound right?
