What Causes The Feeling Of Something Stuck In The Throat?

Hello just began this evening feeling like I had food stuck in my throat. Gurgling water, drinking eating not making any difference. Took picture and notice dangling flesh off of tonsils. It s positioned so I can feel every time swallowing, making me feel sick. What do I do? I have trouble eating as it is with anxiety sickness, I worry this will make my eating a harder process. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

Hi.

If there is physical obstruction then a visit to an ENT doctor will be required who can in a few minutes remove the hanging flesh, if there is nothing there then conditions like gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) should be suspected. Visit an ENT either way.

Best wishes.
