<human>: My throat down along my windpipe feels like I am being strangled. Underneath my tongue seems swollen. No infection symtoms, fever, red throat. It is very uncomfortable. Feels like a lump in my throat before I might cry. I take thyroid meds and my levels are fine.
<bot>: Hello, Your symptoms can be due to an allergic reaction. Causing choking in the throat and swelling underneath the tongue. Thyroid swelling can also cause a problem but if levels are fine then it is probably an allergy. So my suggestion is to consult an emergency room and get evaluated. A clinical examination and a blood test can be done for confirmation. If needed an endoscopy can be done. For now, you can take anti-allergics like levocetirizine to relieve the symptoms. In case if it is an allergic reaction a steroid shot can also be given to reduce the symptoms. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
