I have had a soar throat that leaves and comes back, its like an every other week thing. Only had it for a month. Its not a chronic soar throat. Sometimes I will have a white dot on my tonsils and they would be red. I don’t have any other symptoms, no fever, nothing else. What is this?

I’ve had this “lump” feeling in my throat recently. It’s gone away, but I’ve had it before and it usually lasts a couple days. It almost feels like I have some food stuck, but it won’t move. I decided that that’s what it was, until I had it again. Twice within a week. It doesn’t hurt, but is just uncomfortable. It’s located right where my voice box or “adams apple” should be (if I had one!… I’m female). I was curious if they were my tonsils or what? Maybe just a throat soar? An infection? Like I said, no pain, just a feeling like something is caught in my throat.
Oh yeah! I also live with three cats, and I thought it would be an allergic reaction to them. But I’ve lived with them for three months now, and I’ve been around them for some time before they lived with me. I don’t have any allergies that I’m aware of.
