A visible epiglottis is normal in many people, especially at a younger age. It is not a disease and doesn’t cause harm. The sensation in the throat usually comes from anxiety after noticing it. If you want to be sure everything is normal, you can consult me online for a quick evaluation.

No dear..... nothing to worry about it. YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY FINE. 14 years old means you might be in 8th or 9th class I guess. In this age CURIOSITY is at hype so you tried to google and collect information about it, which is actually NOT WRONG but , the content on INTERNET is many a times MISLEADING for those who are completely unaware of the FACTS . I would suggest LETS DISCUSS ABOUT THE FACTS AND NOT GET INFLUENCED BY WRONG CONCEPTS. You are a smart and thoughtful young boy am sure. ☺️

Hello, I understand why you got scared after seeing something unusual in your throat. At 14 years of age, this can feel very worrying. Please don’t panic you have done the right thing by asking a doctor. The flap-like structure you noticed is most likely the epiglottis, which is a normal part of your throat. In some people especially when they have a sore throat or mild inflammation the epiglottis becomes a little more visible when they open their mouth wide, use a light, or stretch the tongue forward. This does not automatically mean there is any serious disease. However, the feeling of something stuck in the throat (called globus sensation) can happen because of: Sore throat or viral infection Mild swelling due to irritation Acid reflux Anxiety after noticing something unusual Postnasal drip from a cold or allergy The important thing is to examine your throat properly to confirm it is normal and to check for redness, swelling, ulcers, or infection. Without seeing the throat directly, it is difficult to give you the correct advice, and I don’t want you to remain scared or confused. The good news is: We can easily check this through an online video consultation right away. In just a few minutes I can: Look at your throat Confirm whether the epiglottis is normal Check for infection or inflammation Tell you what medicine or care you need Reassure you whether anything serious is present Most of the time in young patients, this turns out to be a simple and completely treatable issue, and you will feel relaxed once a doctor checks it properly. You can book a call or video consultation with me . I will guide you step by step, with full care and clarity, so that your fear goes away and you know exactly what is happening.

Hi, Visible epiglottis is not at all a problem.... Something in throat feeling is due to sore throat... During sore throat, epiglottis also get infected with hoarseness of voice... Visible epiglottis is due to simple throat infection.

You can easily take an online consultation now or book video consultation for further treatment guidance.
