: I assume it's not a sore throat or tenderness of thyroid gland,muscles or enlarged lymph nodes. My sense is there's tension or tightness of throat.musculature. Chronic tension&amp; stress can be the cause. If this pertains to you,, stress management therapy would be helpful. Discuss with your MD or the neurologist.
