Get it evaluated: That sensation at the back of your uvula is concerning since it suggests a mass that could cause swallowing issues or hinder breathing, and you may need immediate attention . Additionally, a healthcare professional can assess for other things such as postnasal drip, mononucleosis, retropharyngeal abscess, and others, depending on the specifics of your case.
