I have had a bad cough for almost 2 months now. Four days ago, I got a sore throat, Then yesterday morning I awoke with a lump on the right side of my upper throat where my tonsils used to be, and a fairly large lump on the very back of my tongue, also on the right side. By about 3:00 or so, those lumps had gotten smaller, but now I have a semi-hard lump near the upper back right side of my mouth. This is very bothersome, red and sore.
