Tightness In The Throat With Heartburn In A Person With Good Health And Pretty Mild Diet.

I have tightness at the top of my throat, but it does not feel like allergies and it is not closing up. I am female and 64 years old in generally good health - no prescriptions. I think I've felt something like this with heartburn, but I've eaten a pretty mild diet lately.

Dear friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

Difficult to conclude or exclude important issues…
Especially at this age, it is better to be seen than be guessing...
See an Internist / get yourself examined / basic investigations like ECG and/or endoscopy and so on are necessary...

Good luck
Take care     
Wishing all well
God bless
