What Could Itchy Small Firm White Bump Be While Having Sneezing And Stuffed Nose?
Hi Doctor, Question I have sneezing along with extremely itchy roof of mouth and stuffed nose. I notice that the roof of my mouth has a small firm white bump that is really itchy as well. Should I be concerned or is this from all the scratching that I am doing with my tongue.

Hello,
It is my pleasure to help you,
Sneezing and stuffed nose are the sign of irritation to the upper respiratory tract by allergen or microorganisms.
Repeated sneezing may lead to post nasal drip which will give the sensation of swelling in the roof of the mouth.
Sneezing will leads to edema of the mucosa of the mouth which will give that feeling.
Nothing to worry, do salt water gargling and take some antihistaminics.
Thank you.
