Small red painless bumps/lumps in the back of my throat, not on my tongue, just throat, what could this be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bumps from PND: When you have postnasal drip, the drainage goes via lllymphatics to the back of the throat. Those bumps are simply organized tiny tonsils to stop the infection from spreading. Drink lots of green tea with lemon to help the nose. If you are bothered by chronic sinus, ask your doctor about using the Hydro Pulse Nasal/Sinus Irrigator. It pulses and restores good cilia movement. www.grossan.com
