Lump in the throat
I'm 29 year old female. I got multiple painless soft nodes/lump at the back of my throat. It's been 9 months but it doesn't go away. In the last few months I've been drinking a lot and used to smoke a lot. Since few weeks, I can feel something every time I swallow food or even my own saliva. It was painful for a week too. 2 years ago I got really serious tonsillitis. I want to go see a doctor but I'm scared. Please help me.
