A doctor has provided 1 answer

?habit: Perhaps at times you feel there is a lump in your throat which makes you want to swallow. If so,could it be anxiety or a habit? Some people have pharyngolaryngeal reflux which makes them want to swallow mucus or cough. If you still have concerns, have an otolaryngologist exam your throat.
