Hi, thanks for your query. Black spots in the throat is because of keratotic lesion due to chronic irritation in the throat. In your case it can be because of reflux of throat infection. Consult with the doctor, if it is associated with pain, increases in size, bleeds on touch. No Emperical treatment for this. Hope my answers have helped you. Thanks.
