What Causes Pressure In The Chest And Swelling In The Throat?

I have a heaviness/pressure in my diaphragm and chest area. I also feel like my throat and esophagus are swollen, but nothing hurts. I m having a little harder of a time breathing than I usually do as well. I ve had this for about four days. What could this be?

Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query. Your problem can be due to Gastroesophageal reflux. Taking proton pump inhibitors like Esomeprazole for long term will be helpful. Avoid spicy fatty foods and junks.
Thanks.
