As per your query you are feeling something stuck in throat while on z-pack which could be due to gastroesophageal reflux disease, strep throat and could be esophageal web. I would suggest you to visit ENT specialist once and get it examined. You should go for endoscopy as well. You should start treatment after proper prescription from doctor.

- Take diet rich in soft food.
- Drink plenty of water and liquids.
- Do warm saline gargles.
- Avoid intake of sharp and spicy food.

You should take combination of antacids along with antibiotics. Doctor may refer you to gastroenterologist, who may go for surgery of lower end of esophageal sphincter if pressure is really high only after proper examination. Doctor may also refer you to ENT specialist in case of tonsillitis.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
