Chronic non-atrophic gastritis does not usually cause a blocked throat. The main cause of chronic non-atrophic gastritis is Helicobacter pylori infection, and most patients may not have any symptoms. Some patients present with non-specific dyspeptic symptoms such as epigastric pain, early satiety, burping, belching and nausea, which usually do not cause a blocked throat. Throat blockage is the feeling of a foreign body blocking the throat, and in mild cases, patients may feel a foreign body sensation in the throat. In severe cases, it feels like a blockage in the throat, with sore throat secondary to infection, and involving the vocal folds can be accompanied by hoarseness and even difficulty in breathing. Causes of throat blockage may be acute and chronic pharyngitis, gastroesophageal reflux disease and laryngeal cysts. It is recommended that patients with chronic non-atrophic gastritis go to the hospital when symptoms of throat blockage occur to avoid delaying the condition and causing adverse consequences.
