For 3 weeks, feels like there's a hair in back of my tongue. used tongue scraper and examined tongue but looks normal. what is this?

FOREIGN BODY SENSATI: FOREIGN BODY SENSATION, I would recommend an ENT evaluation to directly visualize the area. If nothing is trapped there, it may be silent reflux irritating the area.
