Having Lump Sensation In Throat After Eating, No Pain. Is This Cancer Or Some Form Of Indigestion?
I have had a lump sensation in my throat for a few months now. The sensation comes and goes and there is no pain associated with it. The lump sensation is comes mostly after I eat and is accompanied by a lot of burping. It is especially irritating around my menstrual cycle. What could this be, is this cancer or some form of indigestion?

Hi, Relax, your problem does not fit in a description of cancer. It seems most likely to be GERD and please take proton pump inhibitors with prokinetics for few days. Use mucain gel before meals and avoid spicy and oily foods. Regards
