Hello
There can be may reasons for this including a ass in your food pipe or acid reflux causing a swelling in the food pipe.
It is difficult to tell the diagnosis without examining you, please meet your doctor , he may need to do an endoscopy on you , before coming to a diagnosis.
Please meet him soon!
