A member asked:
Sometimes, i get slight pressure in my lower throat. goes away when swallowing (eating or drinking). it comes and goes. ive had this for more than a month now. could this be because of posture or anxiety?

Anxiety is a possibility, but there could be other causes. Best to see the PCP for evaluation and appropriate testing - Labs & Imaging if indicated. Talk therapy for anxiety can also help if indicated.
