What Does A Lump In The Throat Indicate?
I have had a cold for approximately a week. I woke with a lump in my throat this morning and coughed / gagged very hard this morning. My chest felt like I'd been hit by a bat and my chest and arms started to tingle. My arms had a numb feeling. I felt dizzy so I laid down. I fell asleep and just woke 10 minutes ago. My left arm is still sore and the lump is still in my throat.

Hello,
The lump in throat with signs of infection of upper respiratory tract usually indicates adenoid enlargement.
In our clinic we recommend cephalosporin group of antibiotics, anti-inflammatory drugs as Ibuprofen with salt water gargles to cover it fast.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
