Brief Answer:
throat deem following vomiting...

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the query to HCM,
This is no particular condition but possibly that the stomach acid would have caused injury to your throat mucousa and hence causing a constant lump feel ( due to deem) in the throat with nausea. You may try taking warm liquids and an antiemetic like MECLIZINE 50mg SR once a day, safe in pregnancy which shall help you avoid nausea further.
If the feeling doesn't subside in next 48 hrs then you may need to visit a ENT SPECIALIST for an opinion.
