Why Do I Feel My Throat Is Closing Up?
Hi my name is Nicholas. I am almost 16 years old, and weigh about 137lbs. Over the past couple of weeks, i have been making this deep snorting noise. If i do not make the noise, it feels as if my throat is closing up. I make these noises quite often. Any idea on how to get this to stop?

Hello,
You may be having dust allergy, which causes an increase in secretions, as well as blocks in your nasal passage. Use saline nasal drops and medicated nasal drops, and drink plenty of water.
An antihistamine medication will also help. Staying away from dust and smoke is also important.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Cajetan, Pediatrician
