Is Uneasy Throat Comman Post A Nasal Surgery?

I have the sensation that food is trapped on the right side of my throat. This has been only in the past two days and is extremely uncomfortable. Clearing my throat does not help at all and I am very concerned due to the fact that I am a smoker. It feel as if it will come up at certain times, but never let's up. I recently has nasal surgery due to a deviated septum, so I am questioning if this may have something to do with that.... Any answers as to what this could be? Thanks....
