Something In Throat Feeling (Different to Globus and Other Posts)

The title comes from me previously having "Globus" which for me was a feeling of a large item (like a golf ball) being stuck in my throat, this felt more tense than what I'm facing now and went away after a few weeks.

My current issue is localised to one side of my throat, maybe an inch to the left of my adams apple and I've had it for about 2 months.

The everyday feeling is that of something small stuck in that area, almost feels like it's scratched or damaged. When I eat spicy foods, it sometimes burns in this exact area also.

It never goes away and feels the same now as it did 2 months ago. If I attempt to clear my throat, phlegm comes up almost every time and feels as though its coming from that part in my throat where the "stuck" feeling is. But this only ever so slightly clears the issue for a few seconds.

I've had an Ultrasound, Thyroid blood tests and a Larnyngascope, all of which found nothing. I do have a history of GERD.

Anyone any idea what this could be and what I can do to resolve? Trying some mucus clearing cough syrup ATM but it's not doing much.

I'll not that I don't have any other symptoms. No cough, no sore throat, nothing.

Cheers

      Thanks for the reply! I did actually pick some up after reading that it helped others with this issue. I ended up with 4 ulcers after taking time for 2 days... So I won't be carrhing on with it! Also didn't make any difference in this time
