Posted on Sat, 9 Jan 2021
Question: hi, I sometimes get a random feeling of a lump in my throat. It is sometimes accompanied by a metallic taste and random small amounts of pain. I am fifteen and have been having this issue for a while. I also have lots of extra mucus and phlegm in my throat that I sometimes have to regurgitate because of how much mucus is in the lower part of my throat. I also used to get bad acid reflux.

Hello dear and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

I suggest to avoid spicy food which can trigger the symptoms.
