After researching I have come to the conclusion that you may have Dysphagia or Esophageal Spasms, click on the links below for full detailed information:

You can also google "Cricopharyngeal Spasm".
"Cricopharyngeal Spasm
Cricopharyngeal spams occur when the cricopharyngeal muscle (located in the throat) contracts too much. Though the condition is usually considered harmless, it can still cause uncomfortable symptoms, such as feeling like something is stuck in your throat. Treatments include dietary changes, breathing techniques or muscle relaxants."
"How is cricopharyngeal spasm treated?
Management depends on the cause and severity of your symptoms. Cricopharyngeal spasm treatments include:
Botox injections: This treatment temporarily weakens the affected muscles, helping them relax.
Muscle relaxants: Valium or other types of prescription muscle relaxants can help calm stress that triggers cricopharyngeal spasm.
Medications for reflux and GERD: If cricopharyngeal spasm is related to acid reflux, GERD or similar conditions, your health care provider may prescribe anti-reflux medications.
Physical therapy: Exercises for cricopharyngeal spasm can help ease your symptoms. A physical therapist can show you how to relax the affected muscles.
Counseling: If stress is a contributing factor, counseling can help. Managing your anxiety can reduce — and in some cases eliminate — cricopharyngeal spasm symptoms.
In very rare instances, surgery may be necessary. During this procedure, your surgeon makes cuts in the cricopharyngeal muscle so it doesn’t contract too much."
