Why You Feel Like There Is a Lump in Your Throat
This article is a transcript.
What are the two most common reasons for feeling like there's something stuck in your throat?
Well, the first thing is if there's allergies or sinus infections dripping down the back of your throat, it can drip and cause irritation.
The second thing is a reflux, so like heartburn. And if acid is coming up, and irritating your throat, it'll bother you and make you feel like there's something stuck in there.
The way you treat allergies is by allergy medications or immunotherapy. The way you treat reflux is by anti-reflux medications like omeprazole or famotidine, which are over the counter. Thanks so much.
