I sometimes have a feeling that something is stuck in my throat. Kindly let me know what could be causing this.

A feeling of something stuck in your throat (Globus Sensation) is often caused by acid reflux (GERD), stress/anxiety, or muscle tension but can also stem from postnasal drip, inflamed tonsils, thyroid issues, or even food/mucus build-up, generally indicating throat irritation or muscle tightening rather than an actual obstruction, though sometimes a true blockage (food bolus/tonsil stones) can be the cause. It’s usually harmless but warrants medical attention if swallowing is difficult or pain occurs.
