There is a tendon next to the tonsils that is hard and stiff, it may be a stem overgrowth, and it may also refer to the normal palatopharyngeal and palatoglossal arches on either side of the tonsils, etc. 1. The cavernous process is too long: the cavernous process is located in the temporal bone where the base of the rocky part of the temporal bone meets the mastoid process, and it is a long and thin bony tissue. If the cavernous process is too long or the angle of the cavernous process is abnormal, a striated mass may be found next to the tonsils, which can be treated by cavernous amputation if necessary. 2. Palatopharyngeal arch and palatoglossal arch: two arch-shaped mucosal folds are formed on both sides of the soft palate downward and outward, the anterior lateral is the palatoglossal arch, the posterior medial is the palatoglossal arch and the two arches accommodate the tonsil between the two arches. So there is a tendon hard next to the tonsils, it is possible to refer to these two normal tissues. If you have throat discomfort, it is recommended that you go to the hospital in time to see a doctor to clarify the cause of the disease and then follow the doctor’s instructions for targeted treatment.
