A member asked:

There is a pink pea sized lump in the back of my throat. no pain but i can feel it. hasn't always been there. long time smoker.

Throat lump: Go to your PCP or get an appointment wth an Otolaryngologist (ENT) ear, nose, and throat specialist. You may need a biopsy but there is no way you can get a diagnosis without being seen. Good luck.
