Hi, I recently developed what appears to be a common cold and a sore (possibly strep) throat. The symptoms came up the day after I was cooling off near my airconditioner and then drank a large slurpee. It started as a discomfort in the throat and then yesterday I had a mild fever, stuffed/runny nose, and pain while swallowing. Today, the fever dropped off a little bit but I'm still experiencing runny nose and a sore throat.
Now this is what I'm worried about:
I looked at the roof of my mouth (palate) in the mirror this morning and discovered a kind of reddish lesion patch right on my soft palate, and in the middle is a small purple-colored solid spot on the central lining of the soft palate. All completely painless.
I kinda had this purple spot for a while but ignored it. Also worth noting, the roof of my mouth is not a healthy-pink. its light-pale colored behind my upper teeth, and a yellowish color near the back of the mouth.
Is this at all normal?
