I'm 17 female, and for a few months now I've been having a build up of flem at the back of my throat, having to keep clearing my throat. Although a drink helps for a while a few hour its back. When looking into my mouth the back of my thoat has white lumps on it, they arn't like pea sized or anything, just slightly raised white lumps on the thin tissue of the back of my throat. No other side effects other that a slight sore thoat from all the clearing. This is managable and has no obvious threats to my health so I have yet to go to the doctors with a "sore throat". Im wondering if this is famillier to anyone, and/or if I should get it checked out. Could it be enviromental ? I haven't cleaned in a... while (Hey give me a break I'm 17!)

Bit of info - I have never smoked or taken any drugs (except common pain killers) I'm not sexually active so no STD's,

Any thoughts, ideas or experiences would be helpful.

Hey AJCStar, white bumps in your throat generally is associated with strep throat.  My daughter had an ear infection and was on a heavy dose of antibiotics and when I took her back to the doctor to make sure it was gone the doctor said she had strep throat and my daughter didn't even have any symptoms.  So you can have that without symptoms.  Go to the doctor and get a throat swab done.  Good luck and hope the info helps

I have a swollen throat, and I realized that it was turning a blackish color. But now it's starting to turn more of a whiteish color. And I'm not sure what it is. What could this be?

I have lots of fluid running down the back of my mouth, especially when I go to bed the mucus runs down my thoat almost gagging me. What can I do? What can I take?
