Avoid touching it, it induces gag. It is simply a proliferation of lymphoid tissue present over the posterior pharyngeal wall. You probably suffer from recurrent episodes of sore throat or cold. It is your body's response to that. Nothing needs to be done as of now.

Hi, I am Dr. Atul Kumar Nimawat MS ENT. A painless, hard, bone-like lump behind the uvula that does not interfere with eating or swallowing is most likely a benign bony prominence of the cervical spine or related structure visible through the pharyngeal wall. However, confirmation typically requires clinical examination and imaging (like lateral neck X-ray or CT) to rule out other rare causes.
