Answer 1

If you are orally inclined like my gf, you may develop throat nodules.  

Answer 2

Throat nodules can be caused by stress on the throat called varices or true nodules.

If it is a nodule, it can also be fixed surgically.

Varices are a growth  in the throat, they can cause difficulty in swallowing and may have to be removed.  Varices can go away if you do not cause any further stress on your throat, or have not done too much damage.

Check with your Doctor, there are tests that can be done.  If you are have difficulty swallowing , call him tomorrow.

Answer 3

I have been told I have nodules on my vocal chord, Caused by straining my voice as a child.  I loved to sing as low as I could and as loud as I could.

They are like callouses,

They can be surgically removed, but usually voice rest is prescribed.
