Lump of skin hanging off tonsil?

Ears, nose and throat
1

Hi, I'm 19 years old. 

Friday morning I had the feeling of food stuck in the back of my throat. I checked later that night to find something hanging off my right tonsil. I have no idea what it is. Whether it came on suddenly or if it's been there a while, I don't know.

There is no pain coming from it, no sore throat etc. I went to the Doctors today and they referred me to the hospital for an appointment, but it's over a month away. The Doctor didn't know what is was so I am still concerned as to what it is.

It's about 2cm long and moves around freely, please see attached photo's, thanks.

Hi,

I woke up with the exact same thing this morning. I'd be really grateful if you could let me know if you found out what it was?

i didnt get an answer to what mine was either but it went away in about a week or two.

i never found out what it was. mine went way in its Own after about a week or two i gargles with warm salt water a lot. idk if that helped or just time

13

update for any new people: i had this and i went to get seen for it and medical on my ship (im a sailor) didnt know what it was but it ended up going away on its own, shrinking little by little each day. it was gone in about a week or two.

i have something similar , mine is just behind the tonsil and it dangles down, its the same colour as tonsil, the shape is almost like a raindrop. ive had it a few months, everyday it feels like something stuck in my throat

15

did you ever find out what is was. or did yours go away ? have something similar.

16

i had a large growth on my tonsil and had i surgically removed. the doctor scanned it and said its just flesh nothing dangerous, almost like a skin tag. that was 3 years ago and ive notice its growing back again

I have the same problem rn please get back to me about your results if its serious
