Back of throat growth

Hi everyone. 

 

I have a question to ask about my throat, I have always had problems with it, it's sore, tight, lump feeling which I was told was globus sensation but recently the tightness got worse so the doctor decided she would send me for an x-ray for my thyroid nodule. I am still awaiting the appointment which is fine it's only been 2 weeks since referral. I have noticed when looking at the back of my throat a lump that is quite large on my right side and I was wondering if anyone could tell me what this is? I have had my tonsils out so it's directly on the back of my throat. I have a tendency to panick when it comes to these type of things and I have pictures but don't see a way to link them? Any help would be great 

  • Hi Ihaveaquestion577 and welcome to the forum.

    Unfortunately no-one here can tell you what this is but hopefully it won't be long until the results come back and you get some answers.

    The wait is always tough but I hope this article I've found will help to keep your nerves at bay until you find out more.

    Fngers crossed for good news Ihaveaquestion577.

    All the best,
