Had Throat Infection, Excess Skin In Throat, Leads To Choking. What Is It?
Hello Dr. Bhatti; I had a throat infection two weeks ago; and I am better now, and my medications are finished, however, I noticed I have excess skin in the back of my throat; and it causes tonsiliths to form or get caught in it. What should I do about the skin? Or is this what I have to deal with for the rest of my life... I sometimes start choking from it, I should add.
