I have the same feeling on my tongue.I was near cats which I am allergic to. It is windy and there is a high pollen count. Itchy eyes, itchy throat and sneezy and a hairy tongue feeling. . Can't help wondering if allergies.
I think this porridge-like lump you describe is a clot of congealed nasal mucus. I have had them for years and others I know have had them too, but people don't mention it as they are a bit disgusting!! They are harmless but can drop down at very inconvenient times eg when one is out having dinner etc. Very gluey and sometimes with a hole in the middle when they have formed around a nasal passage.
I have to look into that I just started taking antibiotics last week and that's when it started.....thanks
I have had this feeling since being left with it after suffering with a cold back in Dec 2013. I have had a camera up my nose, ultrasound on my neck and nothing has been found/seen. But that feeling of hair is a constant irritant that never leaves me. I have been told that it could be to do with acid reflux, which yes I have suffered with for years and take Omaprazole for it. I was told by doctor to double the dose which I have been doing for the past 8 weeks, and if anything its got worse. Its been 10 months and I am no clearer to what the cause it or whether it can be resolved, but the thought that I may have to live with this is quite distressing. The constant need to cough, snort, swallow to try and remove this feeling means I constantly have a sore throat.
i have grastrol problems and this happens to me.many people think you have to have heart burn but not true .try taking a generic prilosic or acid reflux med for a month if that does not work then you can rule out acid reflux.
Sounds like you might have anxiety which can cause this.
Hi, I used to get those balls... They are actually phlegm balls... Nice... I have acid reflux, but it's from phlegm... Has uvula put for sleep apnea..l no more balls... Still have acid...
