Sore throat

I have been having that sore throat for the past 6 months. my symptoms are as follow. feel like there's something in the back of my throat like a little tiny rock going up and down but when i am trying to spit it out it will not come out.also, i have been very stressed out lately and i always eat late before i go to bed. Recently a lot of mucus has been running in the back of my throat,especially when i am taking that natural remedy called bragg organic apple cider vinegar.In April i went to see a Doctor she said i had throat infection but that was a brief diagnose. i took antibotics,nothing seems to work. Do you guys have any idea???? please!!

I would try getting a neti-pot, this is for sinus irrigation, you can find them at walmart for cheap. I could swear by it. This should heal those tissues and stop your drainage.

Hi, welcome to the forum, you may be having Globus sensation. This is mainly seen in gastro esophageal reflex disease or hyperplastic tonsil. The other possibilities are abnormal upper esophageal sphincter function, stress or psychological abnormality causes this sensation due to altered upper esophageal pressure.

You may need to undergo A 24hrs gastric pH and urease breath test with endoscopic evaluation which will help to diagnose acid-reflux disease and as well as esophageal pathology. You should stop taking spicy food, vinegar, alcohol, cigarette smoking if present.

Antacids and proton pump inhibitors will reduce the acidity for which consult a physician.  Take care and regards.
