Hi, I Have Noticed At The Back Of My Throat

default
Posted on Fri, 6 Mar 2020
Question: Hi, I have noticed at the back of my throat some very tiny bumps on each side. They are hardly noticeable so not sure if it just how the back of the throat is. I'm not sure if they are just glands and are normal. I spoke with my pharmacist and she said everything looks normal but wanted a second opinion. I have no other symtpoms (no sore throat etc). I do not smoke or drink. I am fit and healthy. Please let me know if it is normal or not.

Thank you. The tiny bumps appear to be a little more prominent on one side. I presume thats normal too? do you know what they could be? Are they glans?
