Dear Doctor Need your help. I am 56 years male and have been facing pain in the throat and a feeling of something struck there. Also have problem while swallowing. The pain is constant but bearable. I have history of smoking which is reduced to 1- 2 in cigarette in a day now a days. Also have acidity problem. Are these symptoms related. Is there a danger of throat cancer. I am not scared but want to tackle the problem before it is too late .

Hello . Considering your history and symptoms like throat pain , foreign body sensation in throat and difficulty in swallowing , the cause should be searched for . You need a detailed throat examination & laryngoscopy for initial evaluation. Please see an ENT physician for initial examination.
