Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain Circumvallete Papillae can get enlarged in common conditions like throat infection, allergic reaction to any medicine or food, chronic intake of irritants like very got or spicy food, chemical injury like gargle with concentrated solutions of mouth wah, smoking and tobacco chewing, Oral infections etc..
You should consult an Oral Physician and get evaluated and treatment can be planned as per the cause..
As of now do warm saline gargles, gargle with 1:1 solution of benadryl and milk of magnesia, suck ice and do cold water rinses.
Avoid hot and spicy food and take a soft diet..
If there is pain you can take Ibuprofen..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards..
