What Can Be The Reason For The Bumps In The Throat?
Hi doctor, about 2 yrs ago I gave oral sex on a guy and about 3 weeks after, I got clear color bumps in the back of my throat, along with a slight sore throat. I showed it to my doc and she said they were little nodules so she gave me antibiotic which didnt do anything. After about another 2 weeks, the bumps turned pink like the color of my gum., I have no sore throat or anything, but every now and then when I swallow, it feels like there is a furball in my throat or a lump. What could this be?

Hello
The bump can be due to lymphoid tissue enlargement in your tongue. The most common cause is an infection and you may need a prolonged course of antibiotics for reducing it. Please discuss with your doctor.
