Knot In Throat With Burping??? Whats Causing This?? Posted: 08-04-05 19:57pm
I am a 28 year old healthy female. I
never burp. I cant even make myself
burp, but about 2 weeks ago I started
burping for no reason. They are small
burps but as the days go by, they are
increasing in frequency. Also, the burp
has a bad taste.
Then last week I started to get a feeling
of having something stuck in my throat.
It feels like a knot at the location where
my neck meets my chest bone. As the last
few days have passed, the 'knot' feels
like it's growing. It’s starting to
bother me when I eat and drink. The
burping is also getting worse.
I am curious if anyone has any ideas about
these symptoms? It is starting to be a
constant ‘thing’ in my life. Today
has been the worst. It’s starting to
be a little painful to swallow.

I have only had heartburn one time, that
was when I was pregnate. (5 years ago) I
never get it. I am going to have to go
see a doctor. It still hurts today!

I have the same thing. I have gone to
the Dr. And had every test you can
imagine on my gastro system and all I have
for it is a great big bill. I have
always thought it was somethng to do with
my throat not my stomach but the Dr.
Insist it is my stomach. I am still
suffering so if you have gotten any
answers please let me know. Please feel
free to email me at g

Thanks

My husband has this problem. A couple
weeks ago they did a scope into his throat
and found nothing. But did the
"ballooning" . Helped some but think he
will have to have it done again with a
larger balloon. After he had this done,
several people said they had it done or
had heard of it. Can't say it helped
much yet. Also his has sinus drainage
which could be causing the knot. He
started gargling with salt water today.
Hope it helps him and maybe you.

Hi...Im having the same problem here.
Ironically My Dr hasnt mentioned anything
about stomach....I believe mine is my
Thyroid. hence hyperthyroidism or
hypothyroidism. this is very common in
women I cant remember the specific age
range...but something like 20-35.....you
can read more about this online.
but...when a womans thyroid is not
functioning properly...all kinds of
whackiness happens....so maybe check that
out. I am tomorrow...this is driving me
insane!!! and its getting worse.
