What Causes A Feeling Of Lump In The Throat After A Viral Chest Infection?

I had a acute viral chest infection in Jan 20011. When i was coughing & bringing up mucus i thught some had stuck in my throat. Now when swallow I can still feel something - as if there something there. Day to day swallowing is not a problem but when I take a gulp I really feel it. Doc has refered me to hos so I will have a long wait . Could this be a tear something more sinister?
