What could this be herpes ? Hpv ? Oral cancer ?

Posted , 2 users are following.

I've been having this in the back of my throat for 9 months and phlegm in my throat that wont come up i tried to cough it up but it wont come out. I have been told that i had oral herpes but i never had anh bumps or nothing. The dr said that wasnt it and Ive been tested for strep and stuff but it came back negative. I havent had a cough or fever. Just phelgm in my throat stuffy nose and ear aches i had a small lymph node on the back of ear and a small one on my neck but it never got big that its noticeable. My breathe also smells i can taste it. The dentist said it doesnt look like oral cancer . So idk its just stressing me out what could this be??image
