White pus in throat
There is white pus in my throat as shown in pic attached. can you please advice what this could be, is this something serious. Please note that i have constipation issues but not much.
Hello,
That is a pus follicle in the left tonsil in the picture. Follicle(s) usually occur in the tonsils if there is a long standing infection (whether symptomatic or not) in the tonsils.
If you have associated throat pain then you need a proper consultation. Occasionally there may be associated sinus problems which lead to long standing tonsil infection and throat issues.
Have proper amount of fibre and water in diet for dealing with constipation.
