background story.. I’ve had this growth whatever it is for many years, its been there for so long, that I don’t remember how long it’s been. it doesn’t bother me, its just there. i do have GERD and Indigestion and severe allergies. again, I don’t know how longs its been like this. but in the back of my mind, I’m going to die. I’ve been to the dentist, they have never said anything or even if they noticed I’m not sure. but please give me advice. I’m stressed, can’t eat, sleep, I’m hopeless feeling. sorry for the bubbles on the back of my throat i didn’t fully swallow my saliva. i also have red irritated stuff behind my saliva on the back of my throat if you notice. any advice is welcome. just please be sensitive with me. I’ve been with my partner for more than four years and honestly, he is perfectly fine. is this Cancer? Wart? i don’t know anymore I know this group is mainly for GW… but I didn’t know where else to turn. I’m depressed, confused, distraught, in a constant panic my life has taken a turn again. I can never get a break with my health it seems like. please someone just talk to me
I am not sure what you are scared of. If you mark where you think is abnormal growth, i can check again. Because I don’t see anything wrong there. I’m a dentist student by the way. You don’t need to worry about anything. Calm down. xx
yes here is the problem area
well i think thats a lymph node but not sure. I dont think thats a wart because warts in mouth or throat have a cauliflower-like shape and more pink not red. and red irritated stuff as you said are just your lymph nodes. you say you have allergies. that may cause irritation. I have that too! Bc of my acid reflux. Just calm down! If you are still worried, you may go a dentist or an otorhinolaryngologist!
I’m in works with trying to be seen with an ENT. thank you so much for your response, it doesn’t help that I have health anxiety already.
i wasn’t sure exactly what it was. its just there, nothing has changed about it in all the years it’s been there. it’s weird bc it looks like it belongs on my tonsils bc of the color and texture. thank you for your response i really appreciate you.
This is what a Dentist told me today, i also anxiously spoke with a doctor MD and oncology ![]()
they all confirmed it as normal tonsil tissue.
yes i agree with her! take care of yourself and stop examining your mouth
everything is normal
thank you, Google is Seriously my kryptonite… I’ll try my best to stay level headed about this.
