What Could Cause A Trapped Air Bubble Like Feel Inside The Throat?

every time i swallow it feels like an air bubble is trapped in my throat. The experiance is more severe when drinking liqids than with food, but it still occurs with both. Self induced burping helps the feeling subside. but other people dont have to burp every time they take a sip of water. whats going on?

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you are having trapped air bubble like feel inside the throat which seems to be due to hyper-acidity, it could be related to the stress and anxiety and it could be psychological. I would suggest you to visit gastroenterologist once and get it examined. You should go for barium meal swallow and endoscopic examination of stomach. You should take tab Omeprazole and tab Domeperidone once in day for three days. Avoid intake of hot and spicy foods. Take small meals and frequent meals. Drink plenty of water and fluids.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
