What Is The Treatment For Throat Pain?

I feel like my pill is stuck in my throat. A few days ago my throat had this strange feeling. When I eat It feels like I swallowed a brick it hurts and feels like there is some kind of blockage. When I stick my finger down my throat it feels like something is there that is shaped like a curled tip of tongue. When I view an image of the anatomy of the throat, I saw the epiglottis but I don t see how that could reach that far up into my throat. I don t know what else it could be that is causing this discomfort.
