What Causes Breathlessness And Lump On Uvula?
My girlfriend's been suffering from random breathing difficulties recently over the last week or so. She can be sitting comfortably watching TV when all of a sudden she feels like there's no air and her throat is closing up. I had a look into her throat to see if there is anything unusual and noticed a small lump on the side of the uvula. Is that anything to worry about at all?
