What Do Dizziness And Tight Sensation In The Throat Indicate?

I have a tight feeling in my throat. it doesn t hurt, I can swallow and breathe, although I get a little light headed if I stand up quickly. it isn t sore or lumpy, it doesn t hurt to swallow, it mostly feels like someone has wrapped their hands around my throat and they are gently squeezing steadily, and it makes me feel very stressed.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

The way you are describing the symptoms, possibility of hypotension is more likely. So better to consult doctor and get done blood pressure monitoring. If it is staying at lower side then drink plenty of fluids orally and keep yourself hydrated. Quit smoking and alcohol if you have these habits. If you have allergies then this can be the cause for your throat problem.

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