I always have some food particles stuck in my throat after a meal. Is it a sign of mouth cancer?

Hi doctor,

I am a 39-year-old male. At the beginning of this year, I started to have a feeling of something stuck in my throat after having meals. During that time, I consulted an ENT specialist and gastroenterologist. They did an endoscopy. I was diagnosed with silent GERD with LPR. I took medications, lifestyle changes, and dietary changes to resolve my symptoms. I have attached my endoscopy report. But now, I keep getting it on and off. While having dinner or lunch, I have a feeling of food particles getting accumulated in my throat. I can chew and swallow my food. But I have a mild sense of food getting accumulated in the throat and then I need to clear my throat. While clearing my throat, I get some food particles back that are swallowed while eating. It is caused by some foods only. They are watermelon and cucumber. I chew food properly and slowly. I get a loud burp after having a meal. I do not have throat pain, discomfort, nausea, vomiting. I do not smoke or drink. I was tested positive for COVID-19 a month back and now, I am fully recovered. I would like to know the cause. Does my throat passage get narrow due to burping? Is this an early sign of throat or mouth cancer? Is there a treatment for this issue? Kindly suggest.

Thank you doctor,

I have not done a laryngoscopy. My doctor advised me to do only endoscopy. I do not face any issues while eating white bread or banana, drinking milk or tea, and while taking ragi balls. I take rice and dal for my lunch and dinner. Right now, I am noticing some issues only during dinner. It occurs only after finishing my dinner. Initially, I took Nexpro 40 mg in the morning. I do salt water gargling thrice daily and take small and frequent meals. I sleep a little later after taking my food. I still follow these steps. Due to COVID-19 issues, I do not want to go to hospital. Currently, I am taking Liv 52 in the morning and tablet Ceeplus in the afternoon as a part of COVID-19 recovery medications. Kindly suggest.

Thank you doctor,

I do not have any nasal symptoms. I do not have a cough before having COVID-19. Now, I do not have a cough. I do not have a feeling of clearing my throat during regular times. I do not know how to check whether I have mucus dripping from my nose. My throat remains normal at regular times. After finishing dinner, I have a feeling of food particles getting accumulated, and then I clear my throat. After drinking some water, it gets cleared. For now, I am taking medications and I will report back after ten days. Do I need to take Nexpro 40 mg continuously?

Thank you doctor,

I have completed my ten days course of medication. Still, I have mild symptoms while eating rice and curry items. I do not have this feeling while I take chapati or bread or cereals. I also notice that I am not focusing on eating while taking my food. I keep on watching television while taking food. Will this affect my chewing and swallowing synchronization? I am anxious about this issue. KIndly advice. I took Nexpro 40 mg in the morning before breakfast, Allegra M in the evening, and syrup Gaviscon thrice daily after taking food.

Thank you doctor,

I will continue taking it.

Thank you doctor,

I am in a height of five feet and weight of 63 kilograms. I do exercise for 45 minutes. I use to go to the gym daily before lockdown. Due to it, I am doing workouts at home. Can I continue taking Allegra M for another ten days? I searched online about my symptoms and it showed about globus sensation. Do my symptoms indicate it? I want to know whether this will not turn into major issues in the future.
