Have Hard Lump Below Tonsil, Feeling Of Something Struck In Throat. Removed Tonsils. Is This Ingrown Tooth?
Hello, I have a hard small lump just below my left tonsil, at the top of the jawline. It does not move and it has been the same size for a year (when I first noticed it). It's not tonsiliths which I removed from that tolsinl area regularly (right side tonsil does not produce tonsiliths). It is not painful but feels as if I have something stuck in my throat in tha area. No pus, No redness, jyst a hard mass below the skin. Could this be an ingrown tooth?

Well possibly you may be right, it could be a impacted wisdom tooth. I would suggest you to consult the surgeon who operated you and confirm with him after he thoroughly examines the area.
I hope it helped
Do get back to me if you have any other query
Wishing you a healthy life
Take care
