I've noticed this lump in my throat right above my Adam's apple, and I'm not really experiencing much pain. I do feel a slight twinge when I swallow though. Should I be worried about this?

I've been diagnosed with a deviated septum to the right side and concha bullosa on the right as well. My doctor recommended surgery, but I'm not sure if it's really necessary. What are the risks if I don't get it done, and how much would surgery actually help my symptoms?

If your deviated septum and concha bullosa aren't causing significant breathing problems, sleep disturbances, or other quality-of-life issues, surgery might not be necessary, according to the Cleveland Clinic. However, if symptoms are bothersome, surgery can offer significant relief with good success rates.

I'm really puzzled about this weird feeling I've had in my throat for the past month after recovering from COVID. It's like something's stuck there, but it's not painful or irritating. It doesn't seem to be getting any better or worse, just kind of the same most days. Though I do notice it's more prominent in the evenings or when I'm lying down. It's strange because I don't have any trouble breathing, eating, or drinking, and if anything, swallowing food feels good. I tried antacids and PPIs for about three weeks, but they didn't help at all. I've been extra careful, eating boiled food and avoiding anything spicy because a little spice makes my stomach burn. I'm 21, and I really can't stop thinking about this. Is there something serious going on, or is this just some lingering after-effect I shouldn't worry too much about? What do you think it could be?

No need to worry that could be mucosal congestion it will self heal consume warm foods and maintain healthy lifestyle.
