Very clearly you have granular pharyngitis but usually it does not require any biopsy unless it becomes big in size. Usual cases for granular pharyngitis are reflux laryngopharyngitis which is type of acidity related disorder, post nasal discharge syndrome etc smoking, pollution etc. Definitely it is not cancerous
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
