Throat Ulcer

Guys, I have a throat ulcer, smaller than 1cm- just found it, thought I just had a sore throat. Anyone know if this is normal, anybody else had one there? Im concerned now about HIV again, is this silly? I did drink excessive amounts of beer last night.

Just seems weird, I still have a small lymph up behind my ear, now this, could my 13 week test have missed it?

Not always, I sometimes have "cobblestone" throat where I get small ulcers in the back from post nasal drip. Your 13 week test is conclusive. Your throat ulcers have nothing to do with HIV.

I sound like a right nut-job. I know this is NOT an anxiety forum. But I read throat ulcers often have a serious underlying med condtion
