What Is The Cause For The Difficulty In Swallowing Food?

I was eating, went to swallow but it didn't go down right. At first I thought I was going to choke, but then it kinda went down but not all the way.(?) For hours now, it feels like I have food stuck in my throat. Only on one side. Up near the top of my throat. Feels kind of
like a bruise. Very uncomfortable, but never blocking my berating or swallowing. Just constantly feels like something lodged

Hello,
Thanks for choosing health care magic for posting your query.
I have gone through your question in detail and I can understand what you are going through.
If it is only recently then it may take some time for you to start feeling normal. However if the same has occurred at least 2-3 weeks before hen there is a possibility that you might be suffering from some anxiety disorder and will need some relaxation therapy along with some meds such as clonazepam or alprazolam etc.
Hope I am able to answer your concerns.
