Sore throat, can it be caused by anxiety, pls help

[reddevil]

Having a terrible day today, all I can think about it my mouth and throat.

The throat has felt like 3/10 all day, not as bad as when you have a cold but it feels strange. My mouth is also tingaling everywhere.

I have looked in my anxiety books and all it says it tightness in throat and finding it difficult to swallow.

Does sore throat come under tightness catagory?

Hi. I have suffered with all kinds of throat ailments for years. It was very scary. Have you seen an ENT? I did recently and was diagnosed with LPRD. Sounds scary but its not! Larango-Pharangeal Reflux disease. Acid jumps up your esophogus and burns your voicebox and other structures in the area. Prevacid 1x per day, expensive, but it works. PS my insurance wont pay for it.

I feel for you. I was convinced i had some deadly disease. Since then I've diagnosed myself with a variety of other "diseases". Its exhausting......

Hi,

Today the throat has been at its worse.

I should go back to the doctors but I would be embarrased as I went the other day incase they say the same thing.
