Brief Answer:
Most probably a mucosal cyst

Detailed Answer:
Hello

Thank you for getting back with the answers. I have gone through them. As there is no other positive finding so the lump is most probably a mucosal cyst. Until or unless it interferes with your normal daily routine, i would suggest you to ignore it and continue with your normal daily routine. Take a cup of warm water and add 1 TSF salt, perform gargles (mouth wash) with it for 1-2 days.

> If you observe:
increase in size
pain while eating or
fever & swelling in throat region.

Then you need to visit hospital and get an appointment for a consultant ENT Specialist for direct examination and further workup.


Hope i have answered your query. If you have any follow-up query then feel free to ask.
Wishing you a good health.
