Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.
Noted your history of food getting choked in the wind-pipe which got removed but the wind pipe is now sore.
I would advise you the following:
Bronchoscopy
CT scan of the chest
tests of blood and urine
Pulmonary function tests
Consultation of ENT Surgeon or Pulmonologist
Proper antibiotic course along with anti-inflammatory medicines.
Steam inhalation.
Chest physiotherapy
This should solve your problems.
