Small lump above epiglottis

2021-05-16 08:40:32
Since the past few monts I noticed a small lump above my epiglottis when I slightly force my finger. It is not painful, its size is small and no change in size in the past 7 months. I feel that It's location may have slightly changed by a cm. Should I be worried about it? It feels kind of cartilageous No bad habbits
