In our routine ENT practice, the most common cause for lump sensation in throat is LPR caused by acid reflux from the stomach. Many other condition including cancer can produce similar symptoms.
Next Steps
Consult a good ENT surgeon, get yourself thoroughly checked, including FOL if necessary. Treatment should start after definite diagnosis.
Health Tips
Avoid spicy and fast food, smoking and alcohol which triggers LPR. Go to bed after 2 to 3 hrs. after dinner.
