Noticed A Hard Bump Near My Soft Palate. Is It Tonsil Or Acid Reflux?
i have always been able to put my tongue all the way to the back of my throat ... i dont have that small piece of cartiledge that hold hte tongue down... when i put my tongue back behind hte soft palate i can feel a hard lump.. pea sized... but i thin i tmay have always been there i am just paranoid... can it be from having tonsils out as a child.. or acid reflex?
if you are having any lump behind the soft palate that may be anterochoanal polyp or some nasopharyngeal neoplasm so i suggest you to go for rhinopharyngeal examination by an ENT sp or go for CT scanParanasal sinuses for confirmation so that correct line of treatment may be planed.
