thump in throat when swallowing Posted: 02-11-08 17:01pm
For about two wks now,whenever I swallow
there is a thump in my throat. it is not
so noticable when eating as when just
swallowing excess saliva. This thump seems
to come from my adams apple. Is this
indicative of something serious.

Can you better describe the "Thump"? I
really have no idea what you mean. Is
this a sensation felt or heard?

Best I can describe it is like something
is binding up. If you were to lightly
'thump' your adams apple w/your
finger,thats about the sensation felt when
I swallow. Yes I can hear it. Not loudly.
Like I wrote,its as if something is
binding, or something is not working as
usual.

You might want to see an ENT specialist,
who can perform a scope, if necessary.
Can you make an appointment?

Did you ever get a diagnosis for your
condition? My mom is having the same
symptoms.
