What Causes Throat Pain In The Neck?

Its 4AM and I am waking up again from pain in my throat next to my adams apple on the right side. About 6 weeks ago had sharp pain in my neck like a pinching needle like pain for about 5 to 10 seconds. Since that time I have flashes of pain in my lower neck below collar bone right side. This morning its mid neck next to adams apple. Last 3 mornings waking up from this pain. No swelling, no lumps, no pain eating, no jaw pain. right in the next from where your carotid artery starts to the base of the the next running by the adams apple.

Hello,

Around Adam's apple, it may be due to deep throat infection or follicular tonsillitis or acid erosion during night time due to acid reflux.

Also dry environment lead to dryness and prone for Infection. Please avoid spicy food alcohol, and smoking. Do regular exercise, use tablet Pantoprazole before breakfast for one week.

If symptoms not improved, please consult your doctor, he/she will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
