White patches in oropharynx (throat)

Question

Asked for Male, 30 Years

Since last 3 years I have a few white patches in my oropharynx area (back of throat). In these three years I did take some fungal medicines but these patches don't go away. Are these patches normal or should I take them seriously? Attaching a photo too but it's not that clear though.
