Something stuck in my throat

Been having swallowing issues for many months. Choking on food often, swallowing when I'm chewing. Etc etc. But on Thursday it got really bad and I wasn't able to shift a piece. Now it's Monday night and it's still there. It's shifted a few times. And swallowing is tough. But I'm still eating and breathing okay enough. But it just won't leave... I think I'm gonna have to go to docs tomorrow and see what if anything they will be able to do. My mum suggested it's phantom but why would it move... Trying not to be stressed over it but naturally I most definitely am. I tried all the tricks I'd normally use to dislodge foods but sadly it doesn't seem that any gave worked :/ Does anyone else have this kind of problem?

Hi elliesmith, I have that problem sometimes aswell, i have choked and passed out on two occasions drinking water/juice, luckily in the company of my brother. Dr was no help, couldn't really explain it. Crumbly foods are the worst for making me cough, it seems to just fall from my mouth down my throat into the windpipe whilst eating, no muscle reaction to stop it. I am still none the wiser. Hope you find out what it is. Kind regards CK

@elliesmith , there's some suggestions to clear this in this article:- https://www.healthline.com/health/food-stuck-in-throat I hope something works as I can imagine how distressing this is.
