Hello,
Pus may be drained from the periodontal infection of gums.
Visit your dentist and get a thorough scaling done.
Maintain oral hygiene well.
Brush your teeth involving all aspects of teeth.
Use chlorhexidine mouthrinses to gargle.
Frequent warm saline gargle may help.
If symptoms persists,please do visit a ENT SPECIALIST.
Hope this helps.
