I was about to say its your adams apple then i saw it was u who posted the question so i realised hmm girls dont have them. Its possible you may have swalloed something and its been caught in your throat, other then that im not entiraly sure, im not sure if you can get them on your throat but maybe its a hernia.

Answer #4

Answer #5

MICHELLLLLE O: hi!

Answer #6

It’s probably nothing. Could be a glandular thing, abscess or ulcer which is bacterial. Very unlikely to be anything more serious but you should get it looked at because the more serious things are very serious. Also, once you know what it is, if it recurs (and these things tend to) you’ll know next time.
