Suggest Treatment For Throat Pain
My throat hurts right above the Adams apple, not just when swallowing, I have shots of pain in the Adams apple. It is difficult to swallow and hurts. Symptoms like this happen occasionally from time to time. I am an 18 year old college student that uses dip and alcohol in moderation. What's wrong?
