10 Acid Reflux Symptoms

Symptom #2: Lump in Throat
Most of us are likely to have experienced the sensation of having a lump in our throats at some point. It can happen even when there is no physical lump present and is known medically as a globus sensation [^2]. It is not usually something to be concerned about and will normally pass harmlessly in time.
The globus sensation can be caused by a number of things, including acid reflux. It is not usually painful, although it can still be uncomfortable to bear at times. It is also not usually long-lasting although some cases will last longer than others. If symptoms persist, it might be a good idea to see a doctor to pinpoint the underlying cause.
