Globus sensation and focal axillary hyperhidrosis
Detailed Answer:
Dear sir, it appears that you have 2 problems :
First, is the sensation of a lump in your throat, it appears that you are suffering from what is called globus sensation. globus sensation is a constant feeling that is is a lump in your throat when actually there is not any detectable lump present.
The cause of this sensation is believed to be a problem in the coordination of the muscles of swallowing. these muscles don't fully relax during swallowing giving the sensation of a lump in your throat. acid reflux may be the cause of this lack of coordination.
The treatment to this is by physiotherapy for the muscles around the throat which can be done by a speech and language therapist . also if acid reflux is present it should be treated.
second is the excessive sweating from your armpits. it appears that you have what is called focal axillary hyperhidrosis. the cause is unknown but is believed to be genetic. which means it is something that you get from your family. The treatment is by an antiperspirant that is made from aluminum chloride which has no side effects.
Other treatment includes anticholinergic drugs that have the side effects of dry mouth and blurry vision.
I hope I answered your question. Feel free to ask further.
Regards
