What Causes Feeling Of Something Stuck In Throat?

I been out smoking and drinking the past couple weekends, and my bottom of my throat and chest feel likes there is something stuck in it. I havent smoked in two days hoping it would go away, and after I drink and smoke my voice keep going out. I am assuming that i have just made my throat extremely raw, and when it gets dry if make me feel this way. But just wanted to ask if you think this could be a serious problem, or just monitor for a couple days, and if it doesnt get better then see a doctor.

Hello,

You may be developed pharyngitis and it may cause foreign body sensation. Avoid smoking and drinking alcohol. Avoid cool drinks for one week. Use water vapour inhalation thrice a day for five days.

Use tablet amoxicillin and clavulinic acid 625 mg twice a day for five days. If symptoms not improved please consult with your physician and ENT specialist he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
