A member asked:
What is causing a mild discomfort feeling around my adams apple with no pain when i swallow food or water?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Musculoskeletal: There are many muscles that move the larynx or voice box when you swallow. Therefore, it is not uncommon that you might have some discomfort or a strain of those muscles which you notice when you swallow. Generally, heat, massage, and anti-inflammatory Rx is helpful. See your doctor if it persists or worsens.

It's hard to swallow maybe because my Adams apple is very large. When swallowing my tongue bashes my plate so hard, could this eventually cause palate to become high, it feels higher?
