Hello, I most definitely have tonsillitis because i have white patches on my tonsils, ear aches, headaches, and body aches. Not to mention that my throat is unexplainably soar. Long story short I'm 16 and can not afford to go to the doctor and my mother is not present with me at this time. I'm not sure what to do.

You seem to be suffering from acute pharyngo-tonsillitis which is a common type of throat infection. You may need to take antibiotics and painkillers along with antiseptic mouth gargle for few days for faster recovery. You can also try salt water gargling
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
