Thank you for responding, he did not have them as bad before the surgery. I feel like after the surgery it has gotten a lot worse. He is also having to deal with an unknown allergy that they haven't addressed. I don't known if this is contributing to these choking episodes.

If dealing w/ unknown environmental trigger, that can be challenging to identify sometimes.

A change in nasal physiology during that time can change symptom response or exacerbate symptoms as well.

This sounds familiar. I might have responded to your son on the Sinusitis forum on Reddit.

Either way, don’t allow for the doctor to tell him it’s just anxiety, especially if that’s the same doctor that performed his surgery.

Have him work to see if he can find what was the original trigger. And anything for an antinflammatory affect. If the procedure has caused a little more throat dryness, that could be a possible cause as well.
