A member asked:
Can smoking weed cause yellow spots in throat?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Smoking anything chronically can cause damage to the tissues of the mouth, throat, bronchi and lungs. It also might be a superimposed infection, since heavy smokers of both weed and tobacco are more prone to getting bacterial and viral infections. If these spots are painful, or you have a fever, see your doctor for an examination and throat culture if needed. Think about whether it's a problem.
