1. Concerned, It sounds like Strep Throat. You can read more information on this, but there is a test the doctors do to check for it. They swab the throat and test the saliva. Many times the infection results in white pus filled bumps in different places on the tongue or back of throat. It can be quite serious, so I would take her in to a medi clinic for this test. IF it is Strep, she will need to go on anti-biotics. If untreated SOME people can have a reaction with their heart or other organs. It is one of those things I always checked for when my kids were sick. If it isn't Strep, it's a virus and then you just have to wait it out. Hope this helps!
2. i think strept also take her to the doctor as soon as possible.
