Sore throat / lump and regurgitation

Posted by tinkerbell2018 @tinkerbell2018, Dec 14, 2025

Hi I had bronchitis over 12 months ago and ever since I cough up mucus .i am a non smoker and 61 yrs of age .
The last few months I have developed a lump in my throat glad and a constant sore throat in the mornings which subsided during the day.i also the last month have started struggling swallowing food (regurgitating) .
I went to the hospital 9 months ago and had a camera down my throat which was all clear .but symptoms have not cleared .any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
I'm so sorry that you are having these problems with your throat! That must be awful! I'm 79 and often had a sore throat until I started gargling daily with Listerine mouthwash, the original flavor; not the new ones. It worked great! I haven't had a sore throat or mouth sore for at least 30 years. It tastes terrible and if there is any infection it may sting a little but it does work! I hope this helps you!
