bumps on the back of toungue/occasional white release

by tonguehelp, Jun 25, 2009 01:53PM
lately it has looked/felt like the bumps on the very back of my tongue have gotten bigger, they are not sore and do not hurt, but occassionally it seems/ feels like i have something stuck in my throat. Also on occassion and seems to be more frequent when i drink alcohol, that these bump are giving off some kind of small round and white solid discharge. This discharge tastes very metallic and nasty if bitten into. I usually have to take time in the morning to clear them from my throat

Sorry.  I'm not sure what it is.  You may want to ask this question in the ENT (Ear Nose Throat) section to see if you can get an answer.  You may also want to ask the Oral Maxillofacial Surgery section.
