Hi,

Thanks for the query.

Its unlikely that a lime seed would be stuck in your throat.They are usually so small,that they go down easily.Getting stuck usually isnt an option.The cause for the indigestion could be acid reflux which usually happens at night.Try some liquid antacid for a couple of days.If you have any trouble swallowing then do see a doctor for examination.

Hope I have answered your query. If you have any follow up queries I will be available to answer them
