Hi,
Need some data - age, habits of smoking, tobacco intake, family history of malignancy.
With available query, its only aspiration causes choking sensation.
Chew well and swallow, Do not swallow air while drinking water so sip by sip you can drink water.
Drink in sitting posture, not standing or lying on bed.
these measures may be helpful. If it persists meet your ENT SURGEON FOR vIDEO lARYNGOSCOPIC EXAM, Take care
