Hi! One on my tonsils have white patches almost on it, is big, and my tongue has this like gray colored stuff on it and I m not sure if it is strep throat or mono. I am feeling perfectly fine besides a slight headache. I have never had mono before and I don t believe to be in any contact with someone who has mono.
Hi, Welcome to healthcare magic. I had gone through your question. This could be strep throat. The white patches are nothing but pus. I recommend the following. 1) A course of antibiotics 2) Analgesics for headache 3) H2O2 garggle for removing white patches on tonsil
wish you a speedy recovery.
