Hi there ~
I understand your concerns. I wonder if your habit of chewing cigars has landed you in trouble. Although your symptoms are vague, I suggest that you do not ignore them. It may be helpful to visit with and consult a doctor (ENT specialist) at the earliest so that an examination may be done and a barium swallow as well as upper GI endoscopy may be done. I wish you all the very best in health.
I hope this helps. Take care of yourself and have a lovely day!
