What Causes Small Pieces Of Food To Get Stuck On Throat?

default
Posted on Tue, 30 Dec 2014
Question: Hi, occasionally when I eat small pieces of food they feel like they gut stuck in the bottom of my throat. It only happens when I eat very small things (like gummy pairs, or a small piece of tomato or something). I do not have any problem swallowing or eating normal size bites.

Brief Answer:
Please, relax for there is nothing wrong with you!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this sensation and all the disturbing thoughts this has caused you. Please, there is nothing that may explain such a sensation. You need to believe in the god health status you enjoy as you clearly say there is nothing else wrong with you. It is good to be concerned about ones health but then getting worried to levels that functioning normally for things that shouldn't be there but for out thoughts is disturbing.

Stay relax, calm, positive and is water if you get such sensation. Above all, erase the disturbing thoughts on your mind. That's the origin of the problem and not a real and existing problem.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be. Addressing your concerns is always a pleasure!
