What Causes Yellow Spots On The Sides Of The Uvula Without Fever?

I have yellow spots on the sides of my uvula. My throat is red and it hurts to swallow. Advil takes most of the pain away but I've never had strep, and the ulcers are mostly on my uvula. I have no fever. I do use an inhaler but rinse my mouth and have never had thrush. I'm working in PACU tomorrow and I don't want to infect anyone. I've had a cold for a couple weeks and got my flu shot months ago. I don't want antibiotics and am happy to wait this out, like most nurses I don't have time to go in unless absolutely necessary.

Hi,

I admire your positive outlook and congratulate you for the attitude

Now I guess you have throat pain while swallow

There are lots of pathological causes responsible for your problems

However, let me give my opinion here.

As per your symptoms history is concerned your problem is viral in origin so only gargle in hot water 3-4 times per day.


Hope this helps.
