A member asked:
Is mild soft palate inflammation cause for concern? would post nasal drip do this? had severe throat infect. 2yrs ago & nervous of sore throats now.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Soft Palate Problem: The palate and the throat are connected to each other. It is possible that the inflammation is associated with the sinus drainage, but you need to have an exam to know what is wrong. See your dentist.
