General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns
This may be caused by food particles, smoking or throat infection Some more serious causes should be considered if there is prolongation of symptoms and then endoscopy should be done especially in people who smoke or drink excessive alcohol since some serious issues may be present in this case. Also endoscopy will help to rule out GERD and hiatal hernia which are possible cause as well.
Wish you good health.
