I discovered bumps on back of my throat .Scared me to death thought I had throat cancer. Visited ENT doctor today stated I had cimcumvallate papillar. MD prescribed diflucan tablets and steroids. Will try these meds and hope this will help
I just got this! and like someone else on the forum I had a bad sinus issue when they appeared!!! Perhaps it's related...
I have the same thing going on that you are talking about. I can actually see the fleshy colored enlarged circumvallate papillae on the back of my tongue. Everytime I swallow I feel it hit my tonsil of the back of my throat. It is so annoying. I went to the ENT in late May when it first came on. He said he saw nothing. I knew it had to be something because I could feel it. So we aren't imagining things. It then went away for a month or so and now it is back again. I was wondering if it came on because I came down with a cold a week ago and that is about the time I noticed it again. I also have bad allergies and post nasal drip. As well as acid reflux. All of these play into a lot of throat issues for me. Any advice on how to get this things to go down and stay down? Thanks for any advice. :)
I thought the same thing. That is the first thing I asked the doctor. It gives me anxiety feeling like there is something in the back of my throat of stuck on my tongue. It is almost a sticky feeling. It must be the swollen circumvallate papillae that feels like something obstructing swallowing without the sensation of something hitting the back of the throat. I don't know how to get them to become smaller again. Any luck for you with that now?
I have the same thing. Stop using mouthwash, it helps
let me know how that works....my Dr gave me prilosec for reflux it didn't work I don't have reoccurring reflux..mine have been enlarged since surgery a couple months ago
