output: hello I can understand your concern over the swelling in your throat that you observed recently in this period of couid 19 outbreak I checked the image and I can definitely see some swelling there I have a few questions for you have you observed this on the back of your throat for the first time in the past did you have a similar issue have you been in contact with anyone who had respiratory tract infection recently do you have a fever or a cough sometimes this type of swelling is a result of an allergic reaction to some specific food or allergen which can be triggered after you consume anything cold as far as there is no pain and difficulty swallowing food and water you do not need to worry much although keep a check on it for a week or two and see if there is any change in the swelling you can gargle with warm water and adding little salt in it for four to five times a day and avoid eating anything cold for some duration feel free to contact me if you observe any change in the swelling and stay safe as the couid 19 is spreading quickly maintain social distancing and wash your hands before you touch your face nose or eyes
