What Does Lump In Back Of Throat Indicate?

My daughter has a lump in the back of her throat by her tonsils. She says there is a stabbing like pain (not severe) but it's here. What does this indicate? Should I wait a couple of days before taking her to the Doctor? She just got over strep about 2 weeks ago

Hi.
You should show this to an ENT Surgeon for a proper clinical diagnosis. In throat problems a direct visualization is a must.

This can be a part of the granular pharyngitis; but the granules usually do not grow so much .

please do not waste time- show to the ENT ASAP.
