I've been having a really weird problem since I ate some tiny thin fish about three months ago. It feels like there's a bone or something sharp stuck behind my tonsil, and it's been bothering me every time I swallow. I went to see an ENT specialist, and they said there's nothing to worry about and that there's no fishbone there. But it seriously feels like something is poking me back there. It's driving me nuts. What could it be, and should I be worried about it since its been a long time now without improvement?

I'm really worried because I've noticed a small amount of blood in my mouth. It happens when I clear my throat from water, and I see it mixed with saliva when I spit. Another time, I felt the same when I bent down to touch my feet while standing. I don't smoke or drink, and I'm a 29-year-old male, 5.7ft tall, weighing 67 kg. What could be causing this?
