I’m not a doctor, and I don’t like to be that person pretending they know anything about other people’s problems, but two things come to mind, both long shots, that may plausibly help with the sensation of something in your throat: Gaviscon and Chloraseptic. Gaviscon (supposedly) reduces reflux by changing the physical properties of the contents of your stomach. Chloraseptic literally numbs your throat.
They’re both available OTC. Read the labels before using :).
You could also try seeing an ENT.
- wincy 4y agoInteresting. I was thinking of the mechanics of what's going on and it always feels like there's gunk I can't cough out in the back of my throat. Tried some Mucinex today, going to take it tomorrow morning and see if it prevents my early morning puke (which is mostly dry heaving as there's nothing actually in my stomach). I never ever feel nausea while I'm laying down or sleeping. I do worry that with Chloraseptic I'm treating the symptom but not identifying and mitigating whatever the cause is, but I might try it to help keep me from throwing up! My wife recommended it the other day but I dismissed her out of hand. I really should listen to her more.
- danybittel 4y agoI just recently watched "Diagnosis" on Netflix. One of the cases seems similar. It may not help directly, but it's an all around interesting show, might want to have a look.
