I have a lump near the back of my throat on my soft palate I am pretty sure. Currently freaking out because I do not know what it is and it hurts to press on and I feel slight pain when I swallow. My mind immediately went to "I have cancer" but people I know are telling me not to worry. What could this lump be?
