Q: Throat Problems

I have these yellowish polyps in the back of my throat. I can get them out sometimes and when I do they have a strong foul odor. Can you please tell me what they are? Should I see my Physician about this?

How long have you been experiencing this? Is it habit to pop out the polyps?

I'd suggest that you store them in a glass jar and take them with you to a GP for examination. It' my guess that they might be related to diet and are harmless, but you'll want an expert opinion. Or, if needed, your GP can refer you to a specialist. But you'll need the evidence...
