Suggest Treatment For Tightness In Throat

Question: I've been experiencing this off and on since XXXXXXX I keep feeling a tightness in my throat, as if I'm going to gag or vomit but my stomach feels completely fine. It is NOT heartburn, however. It seems to happen completely at random, as I have tried to monitor my food intake, taking out highly acidic foods and whatnot. None of it has consistently worked. It seems to be worse on particularly humid days, and sometimes it is painful, as though a rock is sitting in my throat. This has become difficult to manage.

The symptoms of the query are quite suggestive of a few possible causes
