Hi, I have been quite good lately with my HA but it seems to have come back with a vengance! My whole family have had a horrid throat virus which was very sore throat, horrid racking cough and tiredness. We are still going through it but I have got obsessed with my throat and glands and spent the last two days prodding my glands and adams apple area as have loads of swollen lumps in there!
My sensible head says it is my glands fighting an infection, but I was unwell with a cold a month ago and noticed lumps in my throat/neck. Have had two doctors check them and they said my lymph nodes/glands slightly enlarged but they were not worried.
Now if feels as though I have something stuck in the front of my throat and I am scared I have damaged myself with all my prodding!! I am really trying to stop touching but keep pressing to see if my neck is swelling up! When I cough the lumps go huge! My children have an awful throat and and dealing with it, I am an adult and and in stupid panic mode!
I have prodded so much today that it now feels uncomfortable when I swallow! I know who silly I sound :(
