Flesh Colored Bump On Soft Palate, Tonsil Stone, No Bleeding. ENT Or Dental Specialist Required?
Within the past week I noticed a small pea size flesh colored bump on my soft palate in front of my tonsil and I have a constant feeling of something stuck back there, almost like a tonsil stone , but this is different. It s not painful and doesn t bleed . Should I schedule an appointment with an ENT or should I wait and have the dentist look at it in a few weeks when I go for my cleaning?

Hello, thank you for consulting with us for your problem. The bump which you are mentioning can be because of infection or allergy or any trauma, but it is not painful it means it is not infectious. if it does not get healed within 1 week it will be much better to visit a dentist nearby for examination of the bump.
