Could I have a bone spur - I have a lump feeling in my throat?

Cervical bone spurs are tiny projections that develop along the bones that make up the spine.

There are several signs that can indicate bone spurs along the cervical bones of the spine. The most common symptoms include difficulty breathing or swallowing. This is because the cervical bones point inward instead of outward like the rest of the spine. When spurs develop on these bones, they can start to put pressure on the esophagus and airways. Pressure on the airways can cause breathing difficulty while pressure on the esophagus can cause problems with swallowing. These bone spurs can also put pressure on the blood vessels leading to the brain which can result in trouble focusing or dizziness. Some people with bone spurs on the cervical bones may also experience pain in their arms. They may also experience numbness, loss of strength, or decreased movement in the arms as well.

When spurs on the cervical bones are severe enough to cause severe pain or other complications, they need to be treated. Sometimes they can be managed with simple pain medication, while in other situations, surgery is required.
