What Causes Choking While Swallowing Food?

Trying to determine what type of doctor to see; I have unexpected problems swallowing without warning. I get strangled on water, food, my own spittal, without warning. I notice this started to happen after I had surgery and a tube was placed down my throat. Like an air, pocket gets caught and I struggle to breathe in a panic! It s getting more frequent; like I can not control the muscles in my throat.
