Psendomonas can grow in the throat? what are the symptoms?i made culture and found pseudo in throat.i have only redness and pain.is it possible?

Yes: Pseudomonas is a very uncommon organism to find in the throat. It may just be a contaminant though it can be found as a true pathogen--causing an infection--in people with depressed immune systems or with cystic fibrosis. You should consult with an infectious disease specialist.
