What Causes Chocking Sensation In Throat While Eating?
I just have a quick question. Over the last couple of days, it s been hard for me to swallow. It s not like there is a blockage, but you know how sometimes you do things without thinking about it? Well, I ve had to make an effort to swallow. ..it s almost like my throat hesitates for a second or two, almost causing me to choke on my food. I haven t been in any accident or anything, and nothing major has happened that would cause this. I don t have any pain, no acid reflux, nothing like that. Any reason for me to worry?
