What Causes Choking Feel In Esophagus Causing Difficult To Breath?

Um, I think I have a bone or some type of food stuck in my esophagus, and it feels uncomfortable when I breath or swallow. It s like something is scratching my throat. I m worried if something is actually stuck in there. If so, how can I remove it? Should I go to the doctor?
