General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,
From history it seems that there might be having some irritation or space occupying lesion in your upper throat or epiglottis.
Consult ENT surgeon and get examined.
Direct or indirect Laryngoscopy will be of much helpful to find out the cause.
Avoid solid food, fired and junk food.
Avoid taking Gutkha or tobacco or smoking if you are having habit of it.
Ok and take care.
