Choking feeling in neck/throat

2017-09-03 17:21:34
I got a bad cold 3 weeks ago and while it seems the infection part went away, I feel like i still have a "choking feeling" in my throat though it isn't constant. I still feel phlegm in my throat however I am able to swallow with now problem. I am able to breath properly as well and am only coughing to clear my throat.

You might be suffering from post viral cough which is a common type of dry cough syndrome after an attack of viral upper respiratory tract infection. Usually it will resolve on its own within few days. You can use strepsils like lozenges, dry cough syrup and steam inhalation for faster recovery
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
