A member asked:
I have a bit of a pressure just barely above my collar bone on my throat. almost like being choked up. what could that be? possibly gas?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many causes: This sensation can come from many different structures in the throat. Infection, inflammation or a tumor could all be possible. Sometimes anxiety can cause a pressure feeling as though one cannot breathe or swallow. Please get it checked out by your doctor. They may need to run some tests.
