<s>[INST] Hello, I am a 15 year old girl and for the past week I have been having a horrible sore throat, (its going around.) Ive felt something in the back of my throat. At first It felt like if I coughed, it would come out, but today, I realized that its a bump in the back of my troat next to my uvula. It doesnt hurt, but should I be worried about it? [/INST] Welcome to Chat Doctor .1. Yes you should be worried about it - but it's not life-threatening and needs to be treated.2. As there are chances to get complicated like Abscess / perforations etc.3.It's a simple throat infection viral / bacterial. Which need to be examined and a swab for evaluating the pathogens.4. A course of antibiotics will be enough to treat this problem.5. As a remedy try to do salt water gargling (warm water) will give some relief. Before you get appointment and see your doctor. Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health. Anything to ask ? Do not hesitate. Thank you. </s>
