I'm experiencing this feeling of heaviness in my throat and I'm worried it could be something serious like cancer, even though I don't smoke. I've also been having trouble swallowing. Should I be concerned or is this something that could be related to something else?

I've been experiencing this weird click sensation in my throat whenever I swallow, almost like something is shifting around in there. It's not painful, but there's this constant feeling of something being there, and its seriously annoying, especially when I'm trying to sleep. I have this lingering cough sensation too, but it's mostly just an odd feeling rather than a full cough. I did drink a lot of alcohol for over a year, which I thought might be the cause, but Ive stopped drinking for the last month and a half, yet the problem persists. I've tried looking up stuff on Google but ended up more confused. Any idea what might be going on or how I can get rid of this discomfort?

That could be mucosal congestion, consume warm foods and take warm fluids which will help you,if it bothering you much visit ENT doctor for appropriate management

I accidentally took two Sinarest tablets just a few minutes apart because I forgot I had already taken one. My prescription says to take one in the morning and one at night. Could this be a big problem? I'm really worried. What should I do?

no need to worry since it is only 2 tablets that you have swallowed
