bubble in throat feeling

[mhasty_37]

For the past week or so I have a feeling of a bubble in my throat, I mostly feel it on the left side, it can be very very mild and then worsen. I notice that when I feel stressed/aniexious (sp) it gets worse. It just all of a sudden started. My mother has acid reflux problems, I do not have difficulty breathing, swallowing or anything, no hoarse voice, no lumps/knots to feel, no coughing or anything just this bubble sensation. It bothers me like CRAZY! I have made an appt with an ENT next Tuesday, but is that who I need to see? The "bubble" never really goes away I dont have it when I am sleeping, and notice worse at night (or that might just be a mind thing) PLEASE ANY SUGGESTIONS!!!!

Dear ''bubbles in throat feeling'',
With the symptoms you had, did you ever get diagnosed? I am experiencing the same exact thing, except mine mainly when I'm sitting at an angle on the couch, or when I'm laying down.  Any help would be great!

I posted some info on a diff type of problem from stomach acids...u do not have to have all the issues for this to be the problem....
If it is a gerd/acid reflux issues u want to see a GI dr not an ENT...unless ur problem is more of just something in ur throat.

Good luck and please post an update

Symptoms of Laryngopharyngeal Reflux are:

Continual throat clearing
Chronic throat irritation
Chronic cough
Hoarseness
Excessive phlegm the throat
Dysphagia (difficulty swallowing)
Constant sensation of something in the throat
Swallowed food comes back up
Post nasal drainage
Weak voice
Cracking voice
Blockage of the breathing passage
Spasm of the larynx (voice box)
Wheezing
Heartburn
This condition is a result of both UES and LES not working correctly.
And it is possible not to have typical gerd/acid reflux  symptoms.
