Is there a way to fix my s6 edge cameras stuck pixels?

Its weird sometimes it doesnt happen but i managed to get a picture of it stuck pixels https://imgur.com/gallery/rVULW
Does anyone know if theres a software fix for this? I dont know how to map out pixels and i cant afford to send the phone in again, this one was already a replacement

Personally, I would send the phone back. This looks pretty bad to me.

Weird thing is its more noticeable some days than others, like right now for instance, barely visible

The problem is that bad pixels tend to spread over the sensor to neighboring pixels. The reason it's more noticeable sometimes and not so noticeable during others, is probably due to heat. If you keep the phone and it get's worse, then your return may become more difficult the longer you have the phone. If this is a recent replacement, talk to whoever sent the phone, show them what you see, and ask if they can ship a replacement up front. After all, you are being inconvenience because of it! Ask for a return shipping label to ship this bad phone back to them since the replacement was bad to begin with... then it won't cost you anything. I don't know what they'll do or say, but it's worth a try.

It's all up to you but a bad sensor will only get worse later, and from what the photo shows, the number of bad pixels may actually exceed the acceptable level for the sensor. Call them... see what they say.
