Hello, recently I've experienced a symptom that has been bothering me a lot. The symptom I have is a tight feeling in my throat, or a feeling that there's something in throat. I actually first had this symptom back in June of last year, and it lasted for a couple of weeks but as I started to not pay attention to it, it went away. Around christmas I started to have major anxiety about my health because of another symptom that I was having, and after a couple of weeks of feeling anxious about my health I started to notice the throat tightness symptom again. It's been about a month since I started having it again, and it won't go away. It gets worse when I am really thinking about it or if I'm feeling anxious about it, and there are times when I completely forget about it and it's not even there.
I should note that I've had situations like this before over the past couple of years, I've had times where I've convinced myself that I'm having trouble breathing but in reality it was most likely just from me thinking about breathing too much, and also I've convinced myself that I'm extremely thirsty/dehydrated all the time but when I stopped obsessing over that symptom it went away too. With all that being said, is it worth seeing a doctor over this, in your opinion? I really don't feel like having unnecessary intrusive examinations of my throat if it's something that can simply be explained by anxiety, but that being said I also want to be careful. Tell me what you think, and also if you've had a similar experience with this symptom I'd love to hear about it.
