Lump in throat and painful to swallow?
You do have a muscle that you can release that can be helpful in getting past your problem. It is the one under your chin. Press both your thumbs up under your chin and near the front. Between them you should find the muscle that is very tight. Press your thumbs into it and hold them there. Relax now, take a deep breath and exhale and don't tense up any part of your body. When you feel the muscle start to release, about 30 seconds later, slowly lift your head up at the same rate of that release until your neck is fully extended. Then remove the pressure but hold your head there for one minute. I don't know if that will be your cure but it should give you some relief.
