Is a sore throat a symptom of pollen allergies along with a dry, sporadic cough?

My doctor gave me penicillin for a week to get rid of laryngitis because she said I also had spots on my tonsils. Now I don't have spots, but my throat is still sore and tight and I still have dry coughing spells that even wake me up at night. I'm taking an antihistimine. Could it really just be allergies causing continued sore throat and swollen tonsils?

It could be seasonal allergies if you do have them. Sometimes, though, a week isn't long enough to kill some infections such as tonsillitis, you need 10-14 days. I would just watch your throat and take it easy over the long weekend and see how you feel come Tuesday. If you do get a fever or the spots return, call the ER or an emergency clinic and be seen. Tonsils can abscess if they aren't treated in a timely manner.
Reply:White puss on your tonsils is bacteria. Try a TB test next.
Reply:Go back to your doctor, it could be a development of tonsilitis or worse, but check it out either way and dont drink from anyone glass dont let anyone drink out of yours and dont swallow any salivia and stay away from sugary foods
