A member asked:

No oral thrush,but my soft palate is yellowish,what would it be,no other issue,no sores,everything inside my mouth is ok?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Palate: It isn't unusual for the soft palate to have a slight yellowish tinge. As long as there is no yellow coloring of your skin or whites of the eyes you shouldn't worry. If you still have concerns see your physician, dentist, oral surgeon or otolaryngologist for reassurance.
