I have several white spots on the roof of my mouth which i have noticed in the last couple of days . Specifically on the hard palate behind my central and lateral incisors. I also have a fever and body aches. My sore throat came on suddenly 5 days ago and was accompanied by a runny nose which has now cleared up but my throat remains sore and I have now come down with a fever. I am also finding it hard to swallow and my salivary glands appear to be swollen and I have some pain in my ears. I have also had a burning sensation in my throat on and off over the last few months but this is the first time that I have noticed the white spots. Do you know what these could be?
Hiyou haven't provided with your personal history, i.e., whir smoker or not? Assuming that you are not smoker, these white spots can be either inflamed orifices (ductal openings) of minor salivary glands, if they are surrounded by red halo, or they may be candida Fungal infection or lastly leukoplakia patch in case if you are smoker. In any case, I feel it is nothing much significant in terms of dangerous potentials. Also, as you have recently suffered with sore throat and fever, it may be a manifestation of that viral effect only. \"B\"Kindly seek a dentist/ oral medicine experts advise for a clearer pictures detailed history is required for any further attempt to diagnosis.
