Feeling like something is in my throat? Why??!

[Wickedfan14]

I'm getting this weird feeling like I got something in my throat and it worries me greatly

But it doesn't last forever as it goes away after a while but then randomly comes back

I can swallow fine and breathe well but I'm just scared of why I get this feeling? Am I getting a illness? Is my tubes in my throat closing because of my fat? )Yes I'm a little overweight by the way) Am I getting a disease or something?

Please answer me, Please! :scared10:

Lump in throat feeling can be simply from anxiety alone, or you could have acid reflux which would cause an irritated feeling in the throat. Or maybe your coming down with a cold.

What's acid reflux?

[Worried 24/7]

Where acid from your stomach rises back up from your stomach. Have you ever ever thrown up a little in your mouth and it burns? It's not a dangerous thing. Just uncomfortable. Other symptoms would be heartburn, nausea, gas....

No but it makes me wanna burp a lot

Could still be acid reflux. I really wouldn't be worried about it. Especially since your symptoms alone could be purely anxiety

[Wickedfan14]

Are you sure?

Well, no. I'm not a doctor. But if you can still breath and swallow fine, then just keep an eye on it. If it gets progressively worse, then go see a doctor. Or go see one just to ease your mind.
