My ENT specialist wants to treat my clicking larynx issue with a superiorlaryngeal nerve block, but I am rather skeptical. Is anyone familiar with this medical procedure? I can’t find any information regarding it being used to treat a clicking larynx. To me it seems mere symptom control, as my ENT specialist doesn’t know what is causing it. I have had multiple CT-scans and the standard reply I get after the scans have been examined, is that the structural abormalities are within the range of normal variation. Should I ask my specialist to perform more tests so as to get to the bottom of what is causing my larynx to rub against my hyoid bone?

Any advice would be more than welcome. Thank you in advance.

I had a clicking when swallowing liquids if my head was facing slightly towards my left. No click if I faced forward when swallowing liquids. This lasted about 24 months when suddenly the problem just went away. It has not occurred for over 5 years now. Do you get this sensation when swallowing?
