Hello doctor,
When I look at my throat, I feel a small red and white granule and on both sides of the tongue, there are 2 red-pink flesh spots on each side, no pain. I have no cough, no fever, no sore throat, eat and drink normally, feel sputum under the neck, sometimes stuffy one side of the nose, sometimes stuffy on the other side, no runny nose. So the doctor asked me what is the red spot in the throat with sputum? Thank you doctor.

Answered by Master, Resident Doctor Le Tuan Nhat Hoang - Interspecialty Department - Vinmec Times City International General Hospital.
Hello,
With the question “What is the disease with red spots in the throat with phlegm? ”, the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Small red and white particles in your throat are most likely overgrown taste papillae. Usually, these papillae are smaller in size. But in people with laryngopharyngeal reflux disease, these papillae often increase in size. Combined with symptoms of a phlegm throat, your doctor thinks you are more likely to have laryngopharyngeal reflux disease.
Therefore, you should go to the hospital to be examined to rule out nasopharyngeal tumors and to have a better treatment for reflux disease.
If you still have questions about red spots in the throat, you can go to a hospital of Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
