A member asked:
Was just diagnosed with gerd/lpr. have the sensation of dry throat and mouth and feel tightness in my throat. will my throat close? its uncomfy!
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Your throat won't close, but could have the sensation it will. If in fact your symptoms are GERD related, ask your doctor if an endoscopic (Stretta) or surgical procedure (fundoplication) would be appropriate. Hope this helps!
