Suggest Treatment For Discomfort In Chest And Throat

Hello, For about four days I have had the sensation of an air bubble in my throat along with pressure and discomfort in my chest. attributing this to gas, I've taken Tums and burping seems to alleviate the discomfort. However, at seemingly random moments the discomfort in throat and chest intensifies and I have difficulty breathing normally. Also having difficulty swallowing saliva (like it gets caught in bubble in throat). What can I do?
