Globus: This is a foreign body sensation. The meat scratched your throat and created this problem. It may take a week to really feel better. You may need to start with liquids, progress to soft foods for a few days. If it persists, see an ENT for a fiberoptic laryngoscopy to fully assess things.

I swallowed an Advil 2 years ago without water and it got stuck in my throat and burned bad for at least a day. Will this have resulted in a stricture of my esophagus? Or would it have just healed? Does it only take one burn to cause a stricture?
