Had An Operation Of Sinus About 2 And Half Years Back. But Still Have Problem Of Cough And Pimples Inside The Throat

sir i am a male 21 years. I had an operation of sinus about 2 and half years back. 2 months after my operation i started smoking. although i left it after 6 months. and about after 1 year again started it. but I had left it from 1/1/2011.but still i have a problem of cough continuously. last week i saw in the mirror that there are small pimples inside my throat area. and whenever i rub my throat by inserting hand inside to clean it, blood start coming out along with cough. although there is no pain but I fear that there might not be any big infection inside. please help.....i will really be thankful.

Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
I think you have tonsillitis. Smoking is definitely not advisable when you have throat problem. You should immediately consult an ENT surgeon, who will examine your throat and if infection is there, he will prescribe required antibiotic for that or if he considers it necessary he may even suggest Tonsillectomy.
Meanwhile use antiseptic mouth wash such as Listerine which is available commercially.
