This can be attributed to the muscles in the throat contracting due to anxiety or stress. Sometimes it feels like you cannot swallow anything and makes the situation worse.


These might be symptoms of Gastro esophageal Reflux Disease (GERD).


The symptoms include lump feeling in the throat or choking or sore throat, or hoarseness in the morning, or trouble swallowing. Gastro esophageal reflux disease can also cause a dry cough and bad breath, and breathing difficulties similar to asthma.

Inadequate supply of potassium to your body is another reason for muscle spasms.


Eat a good amount of soy flour, bran wheat, bananas, potatoes, tomato puree and so on. Muscle spasm mainly happens due to calcium deficiency, so include calcium in your diet. A good source of calcium involves low-fat dairy products such as yoghurt, skim milk and ricotta cheese. Muscle spasms might also be because of the acids that interfere with the body's ability to absorb calcium and hence, it is better to minimize the intake of acidic foods like tomatoes and vinegar.
