What’s wrong with the choking sensation when eating?

The most common cause of choking sensation while eating is pharyngitis, which can cause various discomforts in the pharynx, such as obstruction, choking sensation, foreign body sensation, dryness, itching and pain. When there is more secretion in the throat, there will be irritating cough or even dry heaving. The above symptoms vary from person to person, and the severity varies, often aggravated by excessive use of voice, cold and flu, and fatigue. Treatment requires a light diet, abstaining from smoking and alcohol, improving the living and working environment, correcting indigestion, and improving one’s immunity. At the same time, it is necessary to exclude other diseases of the pharynx and esophagus, such as epiglottis cysts, pharyngeal tumors, esophagitis, esophageal cancer and so on.
