What Causes Uncomfortable Feeling In The Throat?

Hi I had a question regarding an uncomfortable feeling in my throat. For about a week and a half I have felt something (resembling a pill stuck in my throat) along the lines of something being stuck in my throat. It makes me uncomfortable and it is placed on my right side. I feel like it moves and I already tried feeling what it is but it seems like it is bellow my throat. Is it harmful and should I be worried?

Hi,

The feeling of something stuck in the throat could be due to some small minor injury to the inner lining of throat which can happen while swallowing and the feeling of something irritating or stuck in throat can continue for few days thereafter however a review by an ENT specialist is required to rule out some impacted food stuff in the throat. There is no need to worry but I would advise you to get it ruled out at the earliest.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Anoop Kumar, General & Family Physician
