Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain yellow discolouration of the roof of mouth along with visible veins can be due to fungal infection like thrush, bacterial or viral infection, acid reflux, poor hygiene etc.
The exact cause can however be explained only after a thorough clinical evaluation and investigations like throat swab culture..
In case of bacterial infections antibiotics can be advised to you..
In case of fungal infection which seems more probable in your case anti fungal medication like Fluconazole, Nystatin mouthwash , clotrimazole lozenges can be advised..
Along with it do warm saline gargles atleast 3 to 4 times a day..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
