Suggest Remedies For Trouble In Food And Water Intake

I have recently started wearing a front tooth denture as a temporary measure whist having an implant fitted which takes up to 3 months to Complete. I choked on a lot of water and I eventually exhaled it. Now I have a sore throat and I am frightened to drink or eat. When I drink I feel I could choke at any time making me more anxious and hence more likely to choke. I can eat very soft food. It happened Monday night I.e 3 night ago. I went to the doctor and he checked and said it just in the mind try to forget and it will go away. After 3 days I am still worried every time I drink and I am consciously thinking about it Any recommendations.

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Front tooth denture may not be related to your problem.
You choked on water, exhaled and ultimately have sore throat. Now you are afraid to eat or drink due to feeling of / fear of choking again.
My recommendations:
Consult an ENT for endoscopy and appropriate medicines.
If the endoscopy is negative, request for the medicines to calm and quieten your mind.
