If this reduction in chronic throat clearing continues I'll be able to relax and enjoy eating around people again and my family and friends won't have to endure to constant and annoying throat clearing any longer.
Wow. Wasn't expecting this ever to go away!
Chinese medicine calls that feeling of a lump in the throat "Plum In Throat" and it can easily be eliminated by a single visit to a good acupuncturist. It was pure coincidence that my husband was using acupuncture to eliminate back pain when I developed this problem. Immediately upon mentioning it I was taken into my own room, a couple simple needles were painlessly placed and 20 minutes later the issue was gone. It has been at least three years since that experience with no recurrence.
Since that time my husband and I overheard a conversation at a local medical clinic where a woman was sharing her experience of a constant lump in her throat. She told the person she was conversing with that she had undergone some sort of unpleasant throat stripping to eliminate her issue and it still wasn't gone. It broke my heart to hear and I was truly grateful that I had been able to avoid such an unpleasant experience.
I hope you have been able to resolve the issue for yourself. If not, find a good acupuncturist in your area.

Many years ago I had a very similar problem and went to see my doctor about it. Every day it felt as though I had some toasted bread stuck in my throat. I also worked in a job I hated. When I saw the Dr I described the symptoms and said in passing that when I took my family away at the weekend to our family caravan in the country the symptoms disappeared. My Dr said nothing but wrote me a prescription for a very mild sedative. Within a day the symptoms disappeared never to return, Its surprising how tension can manifest itself!
Hope this helps you

I have been experiencing throat tightness or the sensation there is a lump in my throat. I recently read that forcing yourself to cry would help, so I gave it a try and it did! The lump could be caused by anxiety and crying is a way to release. Makes sense. I hope this helps.

If you get a vitamin stuck in your throat there is a way to dislodge it.
- Stick your finger in the exact same location of the throat where the vitamin is stuck. Apply Pressure to the spot with a single finger.
- At the same time place a large amount of water in mouth.
- Keep pressure on area of throat where vitamin is stuck, and then swallow the water in several gulps.
I've used this twice and it has popped the stuck vitamin from the pouch in my throat.

My best success has been in sourcing "Food-Grade" essential oils. I put a drop or two in my tea and drink daily. These break down the food and dislodge it...
I've also purchased organic lemons - wash, chop and put into blender whole (skin seeds) Add 8 oz water and 8 oz grape juice. Blend and drink.
My theory is that once the food becomes lodged, the body creates mucus to alleviate it... the food is kept warm, thus fermentation and a breeding ground for bacteria...the mucus then hardens to a cocoon type structure that is persistent and extremely difficult to remove...
I have only found essential oils strong enough to break through and give relief.
I have also had amazing relief by using a gua sha tool, rubbing upwards on my throat towards my chin... Massaging the area (always have oil on your skin to keep the skin from sticking to the tool)
My last amazing rescue suggestion is to purchase an acupressure pen- Amazon $25. put the flat tip on and massage upward towards your chin in 5 minute increments. If you feel a stinging sensation this means that the pen is not making proper contact- add more oil to your skin. Keep the pen in a fluid motion moving back and forth. (set it no higher than 5. 3 seems optimal for me)
Best to drink 2 tsp of apple cider vinegar with the mother in hot water like a tea each morning.

It took about 3 months of drinking 2 to 3 oz. of Noni Juice every morning before I noticed it worked on my swallowing, I took it originally for normal aches and pains, energy boost, and hoped it would help stave off macular degeneration, which runs in our family. There is a great place to find Noni juice which is organic and does not contain "natural flavors" like some so called organic foods do, it is vitacost.com. It is the best pice I have found, under 10.00 for a 32 oz. bottle. I havent seen a post on this problem and thought it may help someone. Thank God for this site!

I told him it might be a sinus infection of some type and suggested colloidal silver might help if it is an infection. I gave him two, 2 ounce spray bottles of 20 ppm colloidal silver so he could try it out. He started using it right away at 3 times per day with two sprays in each nostril for a total of 12 sprays per day. He told me that that was similar dosing to some nasal sprays he had tried so he would use the CS in a similar manner.
I recently saw him and asked if the silver had helped him. He didn't answer me right away and looked like he was thinking about it. He finally answered with a yes. He said he hadn't even thought about it lately, but realized he could now sleep in all three positions with no coughing or choking. He said it must have gone away very gradually because he hadn't even realized that the problem was gone!
Not the most severe health issue by any means, but I love a happy ending!

If this were me I'd gargle with Colloidal Silver and use an inhaler which turns the liquid to mist. Those might help make the mucus more fluid.
Stuck Throat Phlegm Remedies
Here are some things I would try:
Salt water gargling - 1/4 teaspoon salt in 3 ounces or so of warm water.
Lots of fluids is important to thin the mucous. Lemon is good to cut the mucous. You can put a teaspoon of fresh squeezed lemon in 6 ounces of water. Or 1 teaspoon to one Tablespoon of raw apple cider vinegar in a tall glass of water to drink throughout the day.
Hot (perhaps very warm, not really hot) tea sweetened wit honey, any kind that he would be open to drinking.
Avoid dairy until this problem clears up. Dairy products increase mucous. I really notice this with my children when they have colds.
Let us know how it goes!

Hydrogen Peroxide
The explanation for thus is fully described here:
http://www.wellnessresources.com/health/articles/seleniums_vital_role_in_thyroid_hormone_function/
Hydrogen Peroxide is given off as a normal metabolite within thyroid cells -- this occurs as a normal part of the T3 and T4 hormone formation process inside the thyroid cell themselves. In this form, HP acts as a free radical and normally there is enough glutathione peroxidase(GP) in the cell to remove the accumulated hydrogen peroxide free radicals in the cell. But if your body is also low on Selenium -- the central metallic atom for glutathione peroxidase -- then you will also lack GP in your thyroid cells and the thyroid cell will be unable to mop up the HP free radicals. If this is the case, then the free radical HP will eventually increase to dominate and damage the thyroid cells and so antibodies will come in to remove the debris -- and hence thyroid nodule formation occurs.
Whenever you take high dose HP you should always supplement much higher doses of anti-oxidants because HP does have pro-oxidant action which uses up essential anti-oxidants in your body like Vitamin C, catalase and glutathione peroxidase. You need to at least start increasing the anti-oxidants in your body -- selenium being one of the most important in your case.

When we use cayenne for a gargle, we use 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne with 1/4 teaspoon salt in 4 ounces of warm water. We use some lip balm on the lips before using it so it won't burn the lips and then gargle the mixture and spit it out. We have not found this to be drying, by the way.
I have bought a Throat Spray from Nutribiotic that is quite soothing for throat issues. I mention this because I remember reading a reviewer who was using it for her child who was a mouth breather, to help with his dry mouth. I use this spray in my mouth if I wake up with a dry mouth in the night. It isn't really a cure, but it is a comfort measure.

Just off the top of my head....i would try organic coconut oil in a hot cup of coffee ( or tea) daily. Eventually the heat mixed with the coconut oil may cause it to swell up enough to expell itself.
i kind of imagine it like the feeling of having a popcorn hull stuck in ones throat from what you have said? That has got to be miserable! My very best wishes to you on finding a cure...please keep us posted, and good luck!

To boost immunity, support the Thymus gland which in turn will significantly increase immune response. Here's a paste from a previous post: "To boost the Thymus do these little exercises on a daily basis and significantly boost your immune power. First, use some type negative pole magnet (the side that sticks to metal) over the Thymus, which is directly between the lower neck and heart area; a common refrigerator magnet will do just fine; do this for approx 15 minutes. Second, do the "Thymus Tap" by making a fist and gently bump the T area a few times and wait a little then bump again several times daily. Thirdly, supplement Raw Thymus Glandular as recommended on label."
Next, check out all the good postings on Lipospheric Vit-C here on E. C. Lately. Vit-C is an excellent antibiotic and blood purifier; this should bring immediate lessening of symptoms. Iodine is also important for overall health (and Thyroid Health in particular), take Potassium Iodide as directed.
Other nutrients critical for immunity is Zinc & Vit-A. Natural Antibiotic herbs include: Grapeseed Extract, Olive Leaf Extract, Oil of Oregano, Goldenseal, Pau de Arco. Immune boosting herbs are: Mitake, Reishi, Shitaki Mushrooms (Extract), Astragalus (don't give w/ fever), Echinacea, Beta Glucan.
Hope this helps and good luck.

For the past 3 months I have had the sensation that there is a lump in my throat. I have had every test imaginable with scopes through the nose and down my throat and they have shown nothing. I have been taking ACV 1 Tbsp 3X per day since this started. The sensation has eased off some but it is still there does anyone have any suggestions?

Off I went to the doctor, then A&E, and eventually an ENT doctor. I've been relentlessly patronised and told it's a "scratch", acid reflux, or globus sensation. I had nasal endoscopy (3 times) and finally a bronchoscopy under general anaesthetic, in which, to my utter dismay the ENT doc couldn't find the apple peel. (Personally I suspect he failed to look carefully enough - I've read that up to 25% of bronchoscopies miss the foreign object they're looking for. Also this same doctor misdiagnosed a friend of mine with asthma when she actually had a virus...)
Because of the negative bronchoscopy, I cannot convince any doctor that my problem is real. But I KNOW what I swallowed (inhaled, rather) and I know it's still there - I still struggle with the pain and discomfort every single day and it's badly reduced my quality of life and damaged my overall health. I hoped the apple peel would break up or soften so I could cough it out, but this hasn't happened. Instead it feels as if it's shrunk and gone leathery. It's wedged under my vocal cord in such a way that it cannot escape. I've tried coughing, not coughing, steam inhalation, doctors, Chinese medicine, EFT and speech therapy, even spraying my throat with cellulase enzyme to try to soften the peel - nothing has worked. Three, nearly four years of this discomfort has left me exhausted and depressed and feeling I'll never be normal again.
Sorry this has got so long. It's over a year since I saw my GP and I'm scared to go again - I'm really sick of being treated as if I'm nuts and imagining it. I'm just searching for new ideas. Can anyone think of any substance or technique that would help my throat break down and expel this wretched piece of peel?
And can I ask a favour? PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE don't tell me it's a "scratch", or stress, or acid reflux, or thyroid etc. Please answer as if my foreign body problem is REAL. Which it is!!! Any advice will be most gratefully received. Thank you.
PS. I'm female, age 57, British, not overweight, and in generally good health apart from this particular problem. I don't have dysphagia or any other underlying health issues.
Some days it's more painful than others - especially if I've been talking a lot - but yes, it does feel pretty much like a big popcorn husk, or a piece of soft plastic with sharp edges (eg. like a candy wrapper) digging into the inside of my windpipe, or... exactly like you'd expect a piece of tough apple peel to feel. NOT pleasant. I suppose I'm lucky I didn't choke to death on the spot, but I would wish this on anyone!

I live in hope that it will eventually weaken and break down enough to come out. I never dreamed apple peel could stay in one piece for so long! Nearly 4 years? It makes you wonder what chemicals, preservatives, waxes or whatever they are using on our fruit? I always peel apples now. I wish I could go back to that day and not eat that stupid apple at all!
Happy Festive Season to everyone. xxx

My mother was drinking a glass of apple juice and had something lodge in her throat, she too has been dismissed by doctors now, after having ct scan, scope under anaesthetic, etc.. She is a police officer, having this has destroyed her well being, she has only had it for 4 weeks but has lost weight and is in a lot of discomfort. She can't work or function, it is all she thinks about.

Throat Itchiness
When I lie down to sleep I often get a strong itchiness sensation on the very back of the throat (looking at anatomical dictionaries, I would say behing the soft palate, on the pharynx or the palatine tonsils) that goes away only by coughing strongly. It is not a huge problem, but it often bothers my sleep.
I went to the doctor and he said that it could be either a dust-mite allergy, although it is strange that I don't get it in any other position (well, oddly enough now, while writing this post, I have it while sitting), or due to gastric reflux, which is also strange since I don't get any burning sensation. Before doing x-rays as he suggested to see if there actually is reflux, I wanted to hear comments and suggestions by the members of this wonderful forum and perhaps even from Ted, although I know he has much more searious things to treat. I would really like to avoid unnecessary xrays.
I am adding further information about my situation to give you better understanding.
Some years ago I sometimes had very strong pain on the chest, but after doing cardiograms twice (nothing unusual found) doctors said that it was probably due to a stress related gas buildup in the stomac, and that perhaps some bacterias (don't remember the name now) had grown too much. Fortunately soon after the visit the pain went away and I didn't do the further test to see if there were actually too many unfriendly bacteria. Recently I feel as if the pain on the chest is about to come back, but then I don't get anything other then a very light uncomfortable feeling.
Recently, but I believe actually after the itchiness started, I was doing some construction work and found some asbestos. Furtunately it wasn't dried up and crumbling, but sometimes I get this very strange thought that I might have a little fiber stuck on my tonsil which causes the itchiness.
Lastly, but perhaps most importantly, I very often have tonsil stones that I try to get rid of through gargling, but sometimes I feel as if something is still stuck in the tonsil and also on the soft palate or somewhere around there. Interestingly, just now after coughing to get rid of the itchiness that suddenly appeared while sitting, I got a little stone tonsil.

I strongly agree with using green tea, but like with anything, don't over do it. Try just one cup per day. Try AM and PM to see which time frame gets the best response.
As for dairy, I haven't drank milk in decades and very little dairy (some raw cheese here and there), yet still had this issue in the past (and was eating zero dairy at the time).
Besides daily exercise (not in excess, about 30 mins per day) and drinking at least 8 to 10 cups of water (both, panaceas for a lot of ills). One of the best things we can do for our health is to change things up. Food, supplements and other health rituals. Get out of the rut of doing it every single day. Eat different (healthy) foods, take supplements only every other day (also good for the pocket book), change your exercise routine, do oil pulling only every other day, etc.
If you don't already, do the oil pulling, I think it helps to kill the mites in the mouth, and consequently helps alleviate a lot of health issues they create.

After about 20 minutes, spit the tea leaves out. It is alright if you have swallowed the tea leaves as they are edible.
Hydrogen Peroxide
I started drinking H202 and put more in than I thought maybe 20 drops. It didn't affect me to much, but I noticed a lump in my throat, I have been diagnosed with nodules on my thyroid and thought that it might have been beneficial to eliminate these growths. I have read that H202 will shrink tumors.
Does anybody have information on what I might expect the results to be on these nodules if I start a regimen of increasing H202 drops every day?
A doctor's newsletter I subsribe to said it was good to simply add a 99 Cent bottle of over-the-counter h2o2 to your regular bathwater and soak in it. The skin will absorb what is useful, and it ph balances skin. Do keep it out of your eyes full strength! It can make one feel a bit speedy, and energized, so I would do it only in the morning.
For the Iodine/ iodide -- again, safe externally if not allergic. Only 1-2 drops needed, massaged in a small circle on leg, each day, and body will absorb only as much as it needs. Will stain clothes. Thyroid needs iodine to be healthy, especially as it acts as a protection to the thyroid with ongoing Fukushima radiation. (I don't mean the red stuff called mercurochrome either. Don't use that. ) Iodine/ iodide internally is dangerous as can stop up flow of urine from the body. Again, I had to prove this to myself before I believed it. --T.
