A member asked:

In the last hr have felt a lump in my throat, left side, above adamsapple when i swallow only when at certain angles (looking straight ahead)?

Lump: Lumps are worrisome and right here are several glands the can go wild. Be sure you have no dental infection or a sore close to the lump perhaps on your face. This would be the most common problem-a swollen lymph gland.I f there is an infection cure it and do not worry. Otherwise, see a doctor a dentist.
