I'm sick and have been for several days. Is it normal for a sore throat to last this long?

I couldn't talk a couple days last week and had to miss some work. I went to the doctor for my annual check up and he just gave me some extra strength cough syrup and didn't seem too concerned about it. The thing I'm concerned about is the sore throat is not getting any better nor is the cough. I'm going to call the doctor in the morning but of course I can't do anything tonight. There's also this weird white stuff on my tongue that kind of looks like dry skin that I've never seen before. Has anyone else ever experienced this? Is it strep throat? The back of my tongue is dark pink and almost looks like part of the skin is missing. I'm so confused and in so much pain. I can't sleep because of the pain nor can I eat. I've tried tea and salt water and various medicine and nothing has helped. Please offer any advice you can. And I know no one here is a doctor I will call them at 8 am when they open tomorrow but still have to get through tonight. Thanks!

    It could be strep throat or something as minor as an oral yeast infection or a tonsil inflammation.

    You're right to contact your doctor, he's the one who can answer your questions more appropriately. He knows your history, etc.

    Well to just get through the night pick up some sleeping medicine. Tylenol PM or Nyquil, something like that.
