Suggest Treatment For A Painful Lump On The Throat
Yes, I am having trouble swallowing. It feels as though I have something hung in my throat or a lump. I I drink water I can reguritate the liquid. It feels as thou the liquid is coming from my throat. It s like the liquid has not gone all the way down to my stomach. I have been noticing this symptom for a few weeks, but seems worse today. No indication of acid reflux. I do take protonix 40mg once a day, because of prior acid reflux.

Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The lump in the throat can be because of a peritonsillar abscess. Nothing to be panic, consult an ENT surgeon and get it evaluated. Mean while you can take a course of antibiotics like Azithromycin(if you are not allergic). Do saline gargling.
I hope i have answered your query. Take care.
