An enlarged glottis may appear as a small lump/bump on the outside of the neck, which is often mistaken for hernia. This could be a medical emergency since a malfunctioned structure diverts the food into the trachea and cause choking. On a lateral C-spine X-ray, a thumb sign indicates an inflamed epiglottic mass.
The glottis is the part of the frog that inflates the lungs of the frog. It makes the frog breath. The glottis is the opening to the lungs and is located in the back of the mouth. Pumps the air into the lungs.
