hi there,

I often experience a uncomfortable pressure feeling in my throat down to my chest when consuming fizzy drinks or sometimes even food. It comes along with a croaking sound that comes up through my throat every 30 seconds or so as well.

Please help

Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns....

As per your complain it seems that pressure over chest and throat along with crocking sound that can be burping while eating frizzy drinks and certain foods can be due to a acid reflux as well as intestinal gas formation..
In acid reflux the acid from stomach refluxes back to food pipe and throat leading to inflammation of food pipe causing pressure feeling and at times there can be burning also..
I would suggest you to consult a Gastroenterologist and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and upper G.I Endoscopy can help in diagnosis..
Once the confirmation is done he can advise you proton pump inhibitors like Omeprazole , H2 blockers like Ranitidine, antacids like milk of magnesia. taking small meals every 2 to 3 hours, avoiding heavy and spicy foods, drink plenty of water..
Take walk after meals and also do moderate work out to boost your body metabolism..


Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
