A member asked:

I have had a sore throat on and off for a month, and tonight for the first time i could see my epiglottis. is this something to be concerned about?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not likely: the epiglottis cannot be seen by looking in a mirror, requires radiograph, CT scan or direct visualization by your doctor with a special instrument.
