I've never suffered with that so I'm not sure I can give you any advice. If you could try to take your mind off it by trying to relax and doing some deep breathing it may help you.

Do you have a nasty cold or cough that has started it off?

May be gently rubbing the area to massage it could help.

I hope you feel better soon and manage to calm the tight feeling

Best wishes

It's a swollen lymphnode. I have GERD also and that's my main symptom. You probably ate something that irritated your throat

I have that as well. I feel like I'm choking when I bend over to pick up something.

Anxiety in itself can cause that tightness in the throat. I also have a thyroid issue and

worry about that. It should be checked out. Warm liquids can soothe the throat passages. At this time of year, dryness plays a part of what we are feeling as well.

Wishing you well.

I get this every now and then too. After having medical testing done I found out I had Globus Hystericus. Yes, hysterical comes from that word. Try to stop worrying about it. I know easy to say hard to do. Check it out with your doctor first of course.

If it's Globus it will go away if you can stop worrying about it.

Get better.
