What Could Be The Reason For The Lump In The Throat Every Few Months That Produces Phlegm And The Pain On The Left Of The Wind Pipe?
Rex, 74 years old, complains of a lump in his throat that every few months blocks his ability to swallow then in turn produces a thick white phlem which takes over half an hour to clear. there is also a lot of pain on the left side of his windpipe when this occurs. Any help would be appreciated.
