What Causes Recurring Food Blockage In Throat?

Why do I periodically have a problem with food blockage in my throat. I can go for weeks with no problem, then suddenly take a bite of food and it sticks part way down my throat Sometimes, if I can relax enough, it passes. Other times I usually go into the bathroom and try to force regurgitation. I do nnot have a problem breathing, but do produce copious amount of saliva and my eyes tear up and often my nose also runs.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern looking to the given history and complaint, I would like to say that, in fact this could be difficulty in swallowing and such condition mostly happens due to the esophagitis and this is because of the reflux of acid from the gastric region, and this condition best be treated with the Tab Omeprazole 40 mg once in day at evening time for few weeks, take care and have a nice day.
