HI
Well come to HCM
Antibiotic have no role for circumvallate papilla, because this is not due to any infection but this is normal anatomical structure and does not need any treatment, this may be enlarged in some subject could be due to eating spicy food and more citric contained diet, no medicine needed for this, neither this is to worry, take care.
