White speckles are one of the symptoms of Strep, but there are a couple other things that can cause them, too. So it may be, but my throat doesn't actually hurt, so I dunno.

I, uh, was going to gargle saltwater, because along with lemon, ginger, and honey, it's my standard treatment for throat and nose issues (well, with the nose I irrigate with it, but close enough). But then I realized I don't own any salt. ^_^;; I'll have to rectify that.
