Very odd problem with my nose/throat not sure if I should be worried or not. It's difficult to describe but I'll do my best
When I was pregnant last year I suffered from an overproduction of thick saliva/ mucous which used to get so bad it made me gag and vomit several times a day. I assumed this was hormonal and would improve after the baby was born.
DD is now almost 7 months old and while it has improved a lot and I don't vomit any more I still have a 'thick' feeling at the back of my throat, as if I need to constantly clear my throat. It's worse when I lie down and makes me cough.
The thing that is worrying me is that I can actually feel something but I'm not sure if it's just normal anatomy. If I run my tongue back along the roof of my mouth and reach my tongue around behind my uvula I can feel two soft squishy objects bulging from my nasal passages (i can feel air coming through the holes they are protruding from when I inhale through my nose so I know that's my nasal passage). Should these be there? I've googled nasopharyngeal anatomy but can't figure it out. Not sure if I should go to GP or not, will he just laugh at me and tell me it's normal? Help!
