Itchy throat and cough for 1 month

22 y/o female,have had itchy throat and non-continuous coughing for 1 month. Sometimes I have sore throat,but i think it has been relieved ever since I took Augmentin 625mg BD.i took the antibiotic because it has been one month and I saw white patches behind my tonsils(not on tonsils) that are slightly enlarged,as well as signs of pharyngitis.Also,sometimes I can feel a phlegm-like substance in the throat that triggers the itchiness and causes coughing. The itchiness and coughing sometimes bother me,and worries me because it has been 1 month however i wouldn’t say my coughing is bad. This started when one of my students coughed in front of me a month ago and I coughed 2 hours later
