Why Do I Have Tightening Feeling In My Throat?

Hi. For a while, I had some tightening in mythroat where your thyroid is. I quit smoking and it stopped. Got really stressed and started back. Now, get the tightening and it feels like something stuck on the back of my tongue. When I gargle with mouthwash, it feels better. Until I eat again.
