Inflamed soft palate

2017-09-23 19:29:57
Ive had an inflamed soft palate for almost a month. I am 14 weeks pregnant. I have had chest x rays and chest ct scan with contrast in the past few months. I have bad health anxiety and worried it could be throat or esophagus cancer. Doctors have said its most likely slightly irritated from reflux or post nasal drip. No swollen nodes or ulcers in mouth. No pain. Just some itching. Should i stop worrying or ask about a biopsy for piece of mind.

X Ray and CT scan is contraindicated in pregnancy.. your present complaint need local examination to give any opinion..I would recommend to follow your doctor's advice and stop worrying..
