white spots on top back part of tongue
I recently was cephalexin for facial cellulitis. I've been done the rx for at least 2 weeks. I also sleep with my mouth open. What are the bumps? they don't hurt. My sinuses are always draining this time of year.

The telltale sign of thrush (oral candidiasis) is that its a white patch and can be wiped away easily. You may want to see your dentist to get it checked out and if so, yes, they can prescribe an anti-fungal to remove it as HHayley stated.
It is a possibility that you may have the yeast infection, called thrush. It can be caused by taking certain medicines, such as antibiotics. It can also be easily treated when seen by a doctor and given a specific mouthwash to use x times a day. Hope this helps!
