I feel quite strange that when I swallow liquid it feels like there is something small obstructing - not something noticed with food or breathing and mostly just with water, probably worse when i think about it and it definitely does happen - not my imagination. I wouldnt say it is a spasm and doesnt hurt just feels uncompfortable and worrying. I have had accute tonsilitis some months ago and my glands stayed swollen and are sometimes sore, right down my neck and even sometimes feel painful in my jaw ears or head. Maybe it could have been glandular fever? Anyway ive seen a few doctors who have said they cant see any problem but it just doesnt seem to get at all better. Should I ask to see a specialist? Im worried that the swollen glands can be a sign of serious conditions and the lump like swallowing feeling makes that feel worse although im only in my early 20s.
