What Could Be The Skin Tag Type Lump On The Right Side Of Palatine Arch Near The Tonsil?

I have just noticed a skin tag type lump on the right side of my palatine arch, the arch near the tonsil. I thought I had something stuck in my throat or I had a tonsil stone but it is not one of the. Could you throw any light on what it could be? Thankyou
