What Are The Reasons For Getting Sudden Twinges In Throat?

I have been getting sudden twinges in my throat for the past few months. They are not related to eating or drinking - they can happen at any time. I have not been to a GP yet because it is expensive. But I am getting concerned about what might be causing it.
