What can cause feeling of something stuck in throat goes away for a min when i brush the back of my tounge or eat? clean ct scan been this way 3 month

Many possibilities: That symptom is very common and could be associated with many things. It appears that you don't have an enlarged thyroid gland or other mass because of the ct, making cancer unlikely. It can be related to acid reflux(gerd) and laryngopharyngeal reflux(lpr). Some people require mo's of twice daily reflux meds to help. Another issue can be muscle tension dysphonia, so see an ent/laryngologist.

Relax: First, if you had a clean ct scan, there is no cancer. It sound much more like a post nasal drip than anything else, especially when you describe your solution to the problem.
