Thick Clear Mucus, Fleshy Substance From Nose, White Pimples In Throat, Puss In Crevices. Strep Test Negative. Advise?

Hi I woke up about 3 days ago with a swollen, sore throat. When I looked at it it see,Ed to have white "pimples" on it and maybe puss in the crevices of the back of my throat. I went to the dr, strep swabs came back negative so the blood tested for mono. I still haven't gotten my results yet and I have been blowing my nose and getting a thick clear mucus in the tissue. About 30 minutes ago I blew my nose and a very thick fleshy substance that kind of looked to me like a jelly fish? came out. It was thick and as I said flesh like. What could this be? Also, I've had no cough and my sore throat is almost back to normal. There is still a slight build up of that puss like stuff in crevices but this flesh like mucus and feeling of almost constant feeling of a "lump in my throat" is concerning me. Parasite maybe? It had connected spherical sections to it as well.

Hello

Thanks for consulting H.C.M.

I read your query regarding nasal discharge, which is thick, clear and some time redish fleshy substance comes out. you have sore throat also.

As per your symptoms it appears as you are suffering from allergic rhinosinusitis with acute follicular tonsillitis. your test for strep is negative so no need of worry and you may take now-

(a) Tab ibuprofen.

(b) Warm saline gargling.

(c) Tab Cetrizine.

(d) Avoid cold drinks etc.

This explanation answers your query.

Regards.
