Gastroenterologist Questions

Is this something i should be concerned about?

hi! i have a pretty bad history of GERD, i also have a hiatal hernia for. i’m on medication, but it’s still pretty bad. tonight i was eating (nothing crazy, a salad) and after notice my throat just felt like there was something stuck in it, and i look in the back of my throat, and i see this little ridge that seems to be the cause of my discomfort. haven’t noticed it before, and i don’t know anything about anatomy, unfortunately, but if it was already there, it’s certainly inflamed. i don’t have my tonsils/adenoids either!
