A member asked:
Had ct scan because of headaches and prior head trauma. results "soft tissue thickening in nasopharynx, has slowly been increasing". tumor, adnoids?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Nasopharynx: How do you know it "has slowly been increasing"? How many CT scans have you had? Clearly your HA is not related to this "mass" since the HA started after trauma. You need an ENT nasopharyngeal scope and possibly biopsy if it looks suspicious.
