Can anxiety cause a person to get neck and throat tightness?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes but: Yrs, but so can medical conditions like heart attacks and allergic reactions (not trying to cause more anxiety!) - give your doctor a call. If you don't have one, and this is new for you, go to a clinic or ed right away.
