It feels like there is something in my throat. it has been like this for a whole day. drank a lot of water and ate. it does not hurt. what could it be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Throat sensation: Irritation in the throat can feel like something is stuck. Symptoms for one day are short term. Give it a little longer to see if it gets better. It could be allergy related, early viral or bacterial infection, or acid reflux related. If it persists or gets worse, see a doctor.
