default
Posted on Fri, 21 Jul 2023
Question: I have a small growth at the top of my throat,far back side of the roof of my mouth. It is maybe the size of a pencil point,visible with mouth open in a mirror. No pain but feels though a toothbrush bristle we’re stuck at back of throat making almost a gag reflex at time....easyily felt when swallowing
