There is intermittently a "pop" in my neck (near where i believe the hyoid bone is) when i swallow. i can feel the pop with my finger. what could be causing this? no pain, no difficulty swallowing, a negative laryngoscopy (4 months ago)?

You have been checked out and there is no cause for concern. You may watch and wait. It may resolve on its own. If you get additional symptoms, see an ENT doctor. Wish you good health!
