A member asked:
Have had major post nasal drip recently alleviated by flonase. in the wake of a clear throat, there are a few small red bumps coating it. painless.

Not unusual: These are likely from lymphoid tissues (a cluster of white blood cells) induced by post-nasal drips or inflammation . They should improve within a couple of weeks if the post-nasal drips have been controlled. Sinus infection and reflux disease can also cause these bumps.
