Hello,

firstly I want to apologize for my english because Im from other country smile

So I want to ask, maybe anyone has that problem like me.

Two moths ago I woke up with left side throat and palate pain. I thought that is simple cold. Pain go aways after two days, but I had other symptoms: Throat was red, I felt like something was stuck in my throat, strangehold, and lymph nodes on my neck was swollen.

I went to my doctor, she did blood test (very good) and echoscopy (lymph nodes, like she said "not angry"wink and sent me to nose, ears and throat specialist.

Specialist looked in my throat said that I have reflux, I was very surprised because I didnt felt any other symptoms in my stomach (no heartburn), but he gave me recipe. I take medication for month, couple symptoms gone away, but my throat was red, and lymph nodes swollen still. Now in 06.13 Im going to stomach specialist.

Buuut, week ago again I woke up with pain in throat and felt bump on my palate (near where my tonsils was). Pain gone away, but bump is still there. He is hard and not painfull. Im freaked about that, because I think its cancer..

Maybe someone knows or its dangerous? Im very scared..

I also add photo of that bump. In photo he is red because I touched him with nail, but simply he is like white.

PLEASE HELP

    It is probably just a tonsil stone which is nothing to worry about. They are a build of if food particles and bacteria that have calcified but usually dislodge On their own in time. You could try gargling with salt water to see if that helps. I’ve had one for over a month that had caused my tonsil to inflame and I can’t remove it so I hope it goes away eventually.
