lump in throat hiatal hernia

Any suggestions. I woke up one day and felt like their was a constant lump in my throat as well as a weird feeling like the back of my tongue is dry or burning(hard to explain). my doctor said it was nasal drip, gave my Flonase but this made my tongue feel more "dry". I went to an ENT and he said it's lpr and gave me omeprazole twice a day.

My new disorder,,I believe is a hiatal hernia issue. I was diagnosed 3 yrs ago with a small hiatal hernia. I didnt go on meds because it was found in routine endo and i didnt have symptoms. I get heartburn off and on, but it always goes away. this last time started with a head cold, ear ache.for a few days. then the pain in ear went away. but I was still getting the runny nose and blowing it alot.

I've had this constant lump in my throat feeling for days now. Nothing seems to relieve it. I actually tried to not eat yesterday except some tea, soup and crackers and it didn't go away. Could this be Acid Reflux? It's a horrible feeling! I feel like I've got a golf ball stuck in my throat! I can still eat but I did notice that I nearly chocked on my toast this morning. Maybe it was too dry.

It appears that you may have a hiatal hernia in your diaphragm under your rib case. A hiatal hernia can develop when the esophagus passes through a small opening in the diaphragm that separates the chest cavity from the abdominal cavity. A portion of your stomach can slip into the open cavity and apply pressure on the opening. Acid from your stomach can move into your esophagus causing a burning sensation.

I still burp a lot which I guess means I still have a lot of gas built up in my stomach. You mentioned the lump in the throat feeling as well. For me this is almost a pre cursor type feeling for when my PVC's are gonna act up. I'm not sure why this would cause that weird sensation in my throat.

It can also make you feel like you have a lump in your throat--i think they call it globus sensation--or something similar. You can take a PPI while you are nursing a baby. It should make alot of the symptoms go away--but you may still feel some of them.

i am a 53 yr old woman with history of small hiatal hernia, some inflamation and health anxiety. I recently had a lump feeling in my throat and after endoscopy dr wrote I may have "esophageal motility." due to anxiety probably. he did not find any restrictions . or narrowing of esophagus.. I googled motility and found all kinds of scary things. I saw Systemic schlerosis and immediatly remembered that two years ago i had lichen schlerosis in skin.

I've had the same thing, it's been goin on for about 4 months I feel like something is lodged in my throat and sometimes I hear popping noise. Of course I also got told by a doctor that I had acid reflux but none of my medicine works .. When I swollow it sometimes feels like hair is fought in my throat weird huh.. It scares me to death I've lost 15 pounds in about 3 months .. I feel like I want to throw or gag up my food to help my throat but of course that doesn't help..

From what I have been reading on the internet a lot of my symptoms can be related to either a heart attack or hiatal hernia. I believe my hiatal hernia is pressing on my vagus nerve which is causing my problems. I have this constant feeling of something being stuck in my throat, abdominal pain, chest pressure, jaw pain, and left arm pain. I am at a loss right now, does anyone have any input of this?

I had this feeling in my throat. If felt as if something was squeezing my throat and I cleared my throat a lot. Then it kind of passed away and had a pain and pressure feeling on the left side of my throat.(Not exactly throat, it was right above my clavicle bone, inside a trachea or esophagus, I don't know). I felt more pressure when, for example, I was in bed and turned on the left side.

The lump in the throat feeling is one of the symptoms of acid reflux though no lump is actually found in the throat. since you have difficult in swallowing, I would suggest that you undergo upper GI endoscopy to rule out any organic cause of difficulty in swallowing.

Had the lump in throat feeling for over 3 years. Just had galbladder out on oct 29, 2012 and the bothersome lump is gone. I had no galstones or serious attacks, just thought it was indigestion. Apparently I have had this galbladder problem for over 10 years and didn't realize what it was. First indication was from an ultrasound and next test was a HIDA scan. The hida showed a 27percent ejection rate of bile from the galbladder.

would a small lump feeling in throat that comes and goes be lung cancer. I am a nervous wreck. My Dr said it could be that,,,even though I also have acid reflux, hiatal hernia..he said its a small chance but i have high anxiety.

I myself am leaning toward the Circopharyngeal Spasm as my symptoms worsen as the day goes on and is not noticeable in the morning. Do you find the lump in your throat feeling worsens as the day progresses mark?

Hey i have a hard lump in the middle by my sturmn ive had a scan, im in so much pain scan didt show much, what the hell is it? Anyone else had this??

My throat feels tight constantly like my throat is dry with a lump in front and sometimes I wake up choking and gasping for air. What could it be?

Around Nov 2010 a lump formed in the center of my sternum which I believe may be a hiatal hernia.My question is -If I didnt have acid reflux why was I put on the pepcid and why am I still taking it?

Tonight I developed this feeling in my upper right side of my throat. It feels like I have a lump in my throat right there and when I swallow food it is actually rather sore. It is only one spot in my throat. I am assuming it is my esophagus with the problem since it is worse upon swallowing food. What could be causing this? Should I seek emergency care or can this wait for my Gastro doc on Monday morning?

Hi. I have had a long standing problem with a feeling that I have a lump in my throat - choking sensation, like when you are holding back crying. I have always assumed it was anxiety/stress and have been prescribed xanax for when it is really bad. This becomes constant when I am stressed out. I very seldom take xanax because of the addiction proponent. I also have had a hiatal hernia for many years and take nexium. I have heard that acid reflux could also be a cause as well as my thyroid gland.

Hi, in December of 2010 I had an Upper GI Endoscopy. The Dr told me I have hiatal hernia, gastritis, and GERD. I was put on Carafate and Omeprazole 20mg. I did this for about a 6 months but stopped because my symptoms went away. My symptoms are now back and worse than before. After eating I get SEVERE pressure/pain in the upper right part of my abdomen. I believe this same spot is where my hiatal hernia is located. When I press on it (even lightly) I notice there is a lump there.

Hi. I have had a long standing problem with a feeling that I have a limp in my throat - chocking sensation, like when you are holding back crying. I have always assumed it was anxiety/stress and have been prescribed xanax for when it is really bad. I also have had a hiatal hernia for many years and take nexium. Is the hernia and acid relux possibly a cause for this 'lump in the throat' feeling? What can be done besides taking an addictive med like xanax? Thanks for any advice!

They might order an EGD- scope of your upper GI system (esophagus is in your throat going on down to your stomach)- check for strictures or hiatal hernia, etc.. You might also get an ultrasound of your thyroid, in case a nodular growth is affecting your swallowing. And you might consider if you have felt under a lot of stress lately, because feeling like there's a lump in your throat can be a symptom of anxiety as well.

Severe acidity with gastric reflux can also be a cause and so also hiatal hernia. Worms in gut is another possibility. The nutritional deficiency resulting from these gut issues can also cause muscle twitch. A hard lump in the neck at the back could be a swollen lymph node, a cyst or a neuro fibroma which is a harmless collection of nerve and fibrous tissue. There are more chances of it being a lymph node as you also have tinnitus and pain in your ears.

stretched it. That really helped the lump in throat feeling but not the terrible upper abdomin pain. It feels like contractions or something. I'd rate it a 12 on 1-10 scale! I can't sit still, have to walk the floor when it hurts. Went to ER with same symptoms 8/07 and ended up removing my GB 9/07. It had sludge,stones, and was diseased. I thought great the pain will be gone. Guess what, not a week later- same pain!!!

I have a hiatal hernia and you dont have to have heartburn to have it. I do not have heartburn at all. I had a lump in my throat after i ate and then i had an EGD and it showed a very small one. They are harmless, so dont worry if you did have one. My whole family has them. My upper stomach hurt and my dad has one and his back hurts him. So, dont panic, its ok! :-) Hope this helps.
