I went to the doctor yesterday and after 5 or 10 minutes of feeling around he assured me I just have a sore shoulder. What about my throat?!?! Should I assume he s right or should I follow my instinct In thinking he s full of shit!

Hello

I read your query regarding chocking sensation in throat associated with soreness on shoulder. You have visited doctor and he told about some neural problem.

Dear I would like to tell you that some time cardiac problems presents with these symptoms but the important thing is-

1- In cardiac problem mostly pain is felt at left shoulder

2- In cardiac etiology pain remains only for very short time not continuous.

Therefore your cardiac examination is necessary to rule out causes for this type of pain.

Regards.
