Hello,
A little backstory - I developed a cold sore on my lower lip 2 days ago and a lymph node is also painful on the same side of my neck - near the very end of the lower jaw but below the jaw itself.
I started Googling stuff and found that swollen lymph node might be a sign of throat cancer.
I then went to check my throat instantly and found 3 small sized ( < 2-3 mm) bumps that are hard to touch and are flesh colored, situated on my palatoglossal arch. It happens to be the very same side as the lymph node and the cold sore. I am not sure if I had them before or not, but I just noticed (or just paid attention) to them.
Here is a picture (throat pic, beware): https://prnt.sc/lyqkkk
The I read again that such bumps are a sign of throat cancer and now am I even worried.
Can you please take a look and advise as I will barely be able to sleep because I am now really anxious.
