What Causes Red Bumps On Back Of The Tongue Towards The Throat?
I have red bumps on back of tongue near throat. It is hard to swallow as if something is in my throat. There are also a few on side of tongue and are only visible when I stick my tongue all the way out. It also causes me to cough and throw up. What is this?

Hi
This sounds like a GERD--gastric acid reflux--problem and while you can try over the counter Zantac or Prilosec you really should have it evaluated by a doctor since you should have upper endoscopy
