Hi, I am Dr. Atul Kumar Nimawat MS ENT.
From the photographs, the painless, bumpy structures seen on the back of your throat appear consistent with a condition known as “lymphoid follicular hyperplasia” or “cobblestone throat.
This condition is usually a benign (non-cancerous) response of the lymphoid tissue (part of the immune system in your throat) to chronic irritation, voice overuse, postnasal drip, acid reflux (LPR), or allergies.
Next Steps
Voice rest and hydration.
Avoid loud talking or yelling.
Steam inhalation twice daily.
Anti-reflux medication or antihistamines.
Speech therapy if voice strain continues.
