Hi everyone, so I just noticed this
"bubble" like growth on my left tonsil.
it is a small circle, but it is hard. it
does not hurt, and i do not have any other
symptoms, i have no sore throat, no pain,
nothing. I went to the doctor today and
he said to go see an ENT to find out
further what it could be, he said worse
case it could be cancer, but I don't
remember what kind because it was a long
word and after i heard the word cancer i
basically stopped listening. I am calling
an ENT tomorrow but i want to know if
anyone knows what this looks like, i
attached a picture. look at my left
(right in the picture) tonsil. I would
just like some peace of mind because now i
am really scared. thank you everyone.
Looks like you have some serious phlem,
puss pocket, or something built up around
the back of your throat and the back of
your tounge. The grey areas look like
fungus, bacteria, etc. Could be the pic, I
don't know? The bump doesn't look too
strange to me. Get things all cleaned up
(tounge cleaner, salt water gargle, good
anti bacteria mouth wash, etc..) and then
take another pic. See if the bump goes
away as well. Yes, see a doc for your own
ease of mind ASAP but if the growth was
dark in color I'd be more concerned.
