    i have HPV and i also have these bumps and my doctor made some tests and everything was negative. so she told me its not HPV, thats its normal, it can appear after flu.

    This would be called cobblestone throat, it is harmless. It doesn't mean you have herpes. Cobblestone throat usually means infection, acid reflex, puking, or thicker mucus. It can be caused from more and it can be treated. Your best guess is to go to a doctor and see what they have to say.
