What Causes Sore Throat?
Hello, my name is rob. I have large puss sacks on my tonsils. This happened a month ago and i was tested for strep throat. The result were negative. After a few weeks they seemed to get better. Now that they are back, i cant help but wonder if it is related to the vaginal oral sex i performed prior to both occurrences. I have throat soreness and feel very tired. Hoping to understand whats happening

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The sore throat you are describing associated with puss sacks can be a tonsillar or eritonsillar abscess. Nothing to be panic, Consult a ENT surgeon and get it evaluated. Mean while you can take a course of antibiotics like Azithromycin or ciprofloxacin (if you are not allergic). Do saline gargling.
The infection might be secondary to the oral sex.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
