Unclear: But I assume that they are small bumps at the throat which can be caused by post-nasal drips or reflux.

Lymphoid collections: What you described are normal, sub-mucosal lymphoid collections. Sort of smaller versions of tonsils. For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex, if you have sex.
