Time to see doctor: If antibiotic treatment is not helping, and worrisome symptoms persist, a patient needs to be re-evaluated by a doctor. Perhaps there is an abscess in a tonsil or at the back of the throat. Perhaps a different medication is needed. A "choking feeling" and "tight neck throughout the day" sounds bad... which means one should not wait to be re-evaluated.

Throat always feels tight (choking feeling) when singing, talking not talking etc and the intensity varies daily and has been persistent for at least a year. What could this possibly be? Is it anxiety issues? It goes away with a muscle relaxer?
