Suggest Treatment For Lumps On Back Of Throat While Suffering From Chronic Pharyngitis
Question: Respected sir,
I have had chronic does on the back side of my throat with a red coloratcoloration and small lumps. The doctors are saying that it is a case of chronic pharyngitis. I have tried their treatments for a long time. I don't feel any pain in the throat. But the tiny lumps on the back of the throat just won't go. I am really confused in this situation. I had a blood investigation which shows normal. I am very confused. Is there a natural remedy out should I go for advanced steps like laser surgery. Please help me sir as this problem is a big irritation.
Sir I am a smoker for about 1.5 years .
I stopped it since two months but still its not vanishing pls help me in this issue sir.
If there is any natural remedy or procedure for this condition? please specify that too sir.
If I just stay away from smoking, alcohol, cold foods, hot foods will it cure by itself?
If yes then how long would it take?

Hi Dear !! Thanks for your query to HCM.
Read and reviewed your query and your health concerns in context to your updated picture.
Based on facts of your query and in view of the review of the facts in the picture sent,You seem to have gone Panicky,mostly because of the persistence of the throat lumps,with continued fear of Cancerous Lumps in throat.
My opinion-
Its a case of Chronic granular Pharyngitis with congested pharynx and 8-10 lymph granular lumps in post wall.
This is a normal reaction to the recurring infection- with whatever causes known to you and submitted by you.
Its a life style disease in your case,with smoking, alcohol,cold beverages,hot spicy /fried foods etc.
Alerts-
Just Don't Get PANICKY with this.It would get resolved after proper treatment,which would be planned in next few sessions herewith.
The lumps on back of throat are lymph granules which are hypertrophied due to chronic irritation / infection.
No need of any laser surgery at all.
Things would set right in next 3-6 mths time,as your health issue is chronic.
More information-needed
From the picture it seems that you have had repeated throat infections in the past.
Update on How frequently you get throat irritation or throat pains with cough?
Do you have recurring sinus infections?
Due you have recurring throat mucus discharge and if yes- since how long?
Due you have to go to for medicines and for repeat visits to your doctor.
Update your blood reports if done in past and lately also?
Do you have any history of Asthma / Allergy in your blood relations?
Any history of Cough in your family?
Do you get early morning bodyache / late evening feverishness?
Has your body weight reduced lately ?HOw about your appetite?
Do you have acidity and gases with it?
How about the bowel movements /frequency per day? and Update your stool reports?
How frequently you eat outside in hotels / street fast food ?
Primary Suggestions-(till more information is recieved from you-)
No Smoking of any sort for next 6-12 weeks
Saline / Listerin Gargles -Morning / Evening x 4-6 weeks
Nasal mask-or filters to avoid dust allergy
Non-Spicy bland non fried non-oily diet x 4-6 weeks
Banana Milk Shakes and
skimmed watery Butter Milk- 2 times per day.
More suggestions- after I get further information as asked above from You.

Sir,
I have been having this problem since six months. It came once when I drank extremely cold curd and then drank boiling hot water. The its not going.
I don't have any pain normally, but when the outside weather is a bit cold, I have slight problem. Else there is no pain, although tiny irritations due arise sometimes.
I have not been treated for sinus problems
yes sir, I have a recurring throat discharge for about four months, but it stopped when I stopped smoking.
Yes sir, Although I went to different doctors at different times. I followed only one persons treatment of cyra d, lanol corrrectly as I did not smoke.
Yes sir, I updated my blood reports the past week and everything is normal and within range.
No sir, I do not have any history of Asthma / Allergy in my blood relations
No sir, I do not have any history of Cough in my family
Do you get early morning bodyache / late evening feverishness?
No sir, earlier I used to be a bit irregular in food. but now I have a better mess and hence I go to the mess regularly. My body weight which was a bit low when I used to be normal returned to the normal weight before. I feel that due to a change in mess and liking of food, my appetite has increased.
Normally I do not have acidity and gases, but when I do not eat for two times or one day , there might be some small issues. But nothing on a serious level Sir.
My bowel movements are everything normal only sir.
I do not use the hotels frequently, say like 3-4 times in a month and I don't have street food/fast food.

Chronic Granular Pharyngitis /Under Evaluation
Detailed Answer:
Hi Dear, Thanks for the updates.
Reviewed your sent blood test reports.
Your throat mucus reduced after stopping smoking.
Acidity is not your presenting/ or main complaint and you also don't have stomach pains and gases with it.
Besides this though you are on Cyra D-for quite some time,the throat irritation problem is there.
Suggestions -for further investigations-
1-So in this difficult and challenging situation-I would await till I receive your stool reports.I would suggest you to get the Stool test- for Ova/ Cyst.
2-Also I would suggest to get your- X-ray Chest PA view.
3-I would need more details of your job and about your daily work and diet schedules.
Till then just carry on with Primary-suggestions given in first reply.
