I'm starting to have trouble when I swallow food. It's like there's this mild pain that's just not there when I'm drinking water. Could this be something I should be worried about, or is it maybe just something that will pass? I'm kind of concerned because it's definitely not normal for me. Any thoughts on what might be going on?

I'm dealing with this phlegm in my chest for quite a while now, even though I don't have a cough. It's super annoying, especially when I'm eating, and it's making me feel like I'm going to vomit, sometimes to the point where I end up losing all the food I just ate. What could be causing this? Should I be worried, and what can I do to get rid of it?

take tablet mucinac for twice a day for 5 days

I've been feeling strange for the past couple of months, and it's happened twice already. I get this itchy feeling in my throat, and there's a heaviness right in the middle of my chest and the tube that leads from my throat to my stomach. It gets really uncomfortable. Breathing feels really tight, although it's still okay, but then I also get this uneasy feeling in my stomach. After about a week, it settles down, but then I start having pain in my lower abdomen. I used pantocid before, which helped, but now I'm confused. Is this a gastric issue, something heart-related, or maybe a breathing problem? Can you offer any advice?
