Many possible causes: In young adults, a feeling of something stuck in the throat could be just that--something is stuck in your throat. A CT scan won't necessarily see that. It would require a visit to an ear, nose and throat surgeon to rule that out completely. It also could easily be a symptom of reflux--stomach contents refluxing into the back of the throat. An infection is also possible, and needs treatment.
