What Could Flutters In Throat Suggest?
Hi, what does it mean when you feel quick light feeling flutters in the throat? I feel no pain, just a weird sensation like "butterflies" moving upward only in the throat area. I don't have high blood pressure, I do not take medication of any sort. I do have a very stressful job. Oh, and no known heart issues or acid reflux

Hello,
It may be due to acid reflux may cause irritation to lead to symptoms. Anxiety or electrolyte imbalance etcetera. Or after taking of food that irritates the mouth etcetera. Avoid spicy food and alcohol, use tablet pantoprazole before breakfast for one week. If symptoms not improved, please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
