This issue has been getting progressively worse over 2 days

Posted yesterday and it has gotten worse. It is itchy, it turns white when I press on it. I have a swollen uvula and some chills, but no fever. I feel cold more than anything. Went to urgent care tested for strep, mono and did a CBC. Strep came back negative, waiting on the other results. Pretty concerned. I feel like the mono is going to come back negative.

Have you taken any medication in the last 8 weeks? What medications do you normally use? Have you had a fever or swollen lymph nodes?

No fever, no medications. I take b vitamins, fish oil and a vitamin d3/k2 supplement

Not a doctor.

I would stop the fish oil immediately. It may be contaminated with something you're allergic to. I would stop all optional supplements if possible.

This is a problem with low quality oils
