Hello
Welcome to Health care Magic.

I reviewed your history.
It seems from the history that you are having pus filled spots in the throat.
My response to your question is as follows.

The presence of pus filled spots in the throat indicate inflammation of the throat with formation of abscess.
This requires treatment by the use of antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Hope this information is helpful to you.
Do write back to me for any further questions and I will be happy to answer and assist you.

Thank you
With regards
