My epligottis is visible. It never has been before and I have a minor soar throat. When I swallow, I sometimes feel as though I m swallowing hair, and sometimes like a little lego piece. I went to urgent care and the doctor seemed very relaxed about it but I m truly concerned. He prescribed a gargle and antibiotic and said that being able to see tour epligottis is normal. Again, it s never been visible to my eyes and I ve been all inside my mouth before (tonsil stones, cleaning tounge, etc.)
