Hi everybody!

I have "irritation" and a feeling of something stuck at the back of my throat on the right side for a few months. I see a tiny growth at the very far back right side of the tongue (BOT) just below the tonsil. Saw ENT and had a scope done, they are not concerned. Think it is a papilla or lingual tonsil. As far as I can tell, no enlarged neck lymph nodes.

Since the feeling has not gone away, 2 days ago, I went to a dentist who offers oral DNA testing for HPV. If positive, I will insist on a biopsy. My concern is, I do not know how good this testing is and what do the members on this board recommend?
