Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
The feeling of something while swallowing saliva needs to be investigated. I suggest you to consult an ENT specialist for examination of throat and a gastroenterologist for upper GI endoscopy to look for any lesion in esophagus.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
