Esophageal spasm: From your description it sounds as though you might have esophageal spasms. The esophagus is the muscular tube that connects your throat to your stomach. Sometimes a hot or cold drink can trigger spasms in the muscle of the esophagus. If your symptoms persist and you continue to have trouble breathing, seek treatment ASAP.

Hi, when I have like a burp my chest kind of hurts and it hurts when I swallow a pill it did today. And I have a slight cough and runny nose? What could it be? Could it be heartburn? Any meds I can take for it? Should I drink hot liquids?
