I had that a few weeks ago, my whole mouth and throat was really sore. It cleared itself up on its own, i used lemsips to ease it.
The v shaped spots on your tongue are always there, i found them too when my throat was sore, we just dont normally look for them. I know this cos i got really worried and i looked it up!!!!
You could go to the doctors to be on the safe side for your sore throat, but the v-shaped spots are definitely normal.
If you look at the website, about half way down taks about the v-shaped lumps.

Strep throat, go see a doctor and you will need an antibiotic. Gargling with salt water does help the pain a bit.

Sounds like strep throat to me. I get it at least 2 every winter. You should go to the Dr, and get some meds to get rid of it.
Good luck

It sounds like strept throat. I used to get it every year. I would definately go to the doctor soon so you can get anti-biotics and get better. The longer you wait the worse it will get and you will get extremely sick!

tonsilitis, go to the doctor and get some anti biotics QUICK!! it could be Laryngitis but only the doctor can tell you for sure. It's going to get worse quite quickly, be prepared!
