Can anxiety/panic attacks cause it to feel like your througth swells everytime you eat even if your not suffering an attack?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: If you are panicking the answer would be yes, but generalized anxiety does not do this. Pschdatic anxiety can at times cause this, but there are many other medical causes, gerd, probably among the most common. The feeling is called " globus". For an excellent discussion , please go to www. Wikipedia. Com and type in globus hystericus. It discusses the physical and psychological causes of globus. And if it persists, ENT consult is indicated.
