>>29496827

>>29496827

>>29496827
1. You seem to have oral thrush. You need antibiotic.
2. If you mean your dangly thing, it's your uvula
3. If you mean that c-shaved sheet of tendon I don't fucking know man you need to see a doctor anyways about the Thrush, it could be related.
>>29496846
I poked it with a spoon and it fucking wrecked so I'm not tweezing it
>>29496827
WHAT
THE
FUCK
anon you need a doctor
>>29496827
It's your epiglottis.
>>29496827
that flap thing is called the epiglottis and it's the normal part of your anatomy that covers your larynx (breathing tube) when you swallow. When you swallow, that flap thing goes backwards and covers up the hole the goes to your lungs. it's normal

he doesn't have oral thrush he just hasn't scraped the morning residue off his tongue. oral thrush looks different to that.
>>29496888
Why the fuck does it look like that then?? Will also mention about the thrush I have a rather long tongue so that's the very back of my tongue
Your uvula is a bit swollen. For me that's usually an early indication that I'm coming down with a cold.
>>29496925
No you dumbshit it means go to your BATHROOM AND BRUSH YOUR TEETH AND YOUR TONGUE
then retake the photo :3
>>29496925
its normal for it to look like that. In fact anesthesiologists would love you because you would be an extremely easy intubation.
>>29496882
This, google it OP
>>29496950
Should I go to hospital it's never looked like this before

Here OP
Deepthroating stuff needs up your throat. Speaking from experience. Stop if or you'll feel like something is in your throat 24 7.
>>29497039
Messes up not needs up *
>>29497060
Very funny
Seriously guys, will it go back to normal? I'm really freaking out that I might have epiglottitis and need to go to hospital
>>29496888
>he just hasn't scraped the morning residue off his tongue
That's a shit ton of buildup, you have a problem if that happens to you every day
>>29497088
Who knows, but you're probably irritating it looking at it a bunch and it looks bigger because you made it swollen.
>>29497133
The problem is that I have a very long tongue so brushing that far back triggers my gag reflex somewhat, as you can see the front parts of my tongue are much less grimy

read this, specifically, the caption of the 2nd picture on the page.

Thanks man, feels really fucking odd, hopefully it goes back to normal soon
>>29497088
You don't have epiglottitis. If you did you would be in deep shit but you dont.
Funnily enough I just treated some kid with it last week
