What Causes Green Pus Running Down The Throat?
My mother has green pus running down her throat and claims it smells like rotten meat. She is weak and has been on antibiotics for weeks to no avail. Cat scans are clear. frequent debilitating migraines and occasional diarrhea. She is a heavy smoker and is 62 yrs old. She had e coli in her lungs about 2 1/2 years ago and has not felt good since.
