Feeling a Lump in Your Throat That Won’t Go Away? Plum Pit Qi Might Be the Cause

A Woman with a Stuck Feeling in her Throat

Do you ever have a 'lump in the throat feeling' that you can’t swallow down?  No matter what you drink or eat – it just won’t go away?  Well, Easy Asian Medicine has an answer for you.

Now let me preface this post with saying that, if this is happening to you, please go to your MD and have them check things out because obviously there are many serious conditions/diseases that could be causing this. 

But if you’ve gone to the doctors and had the imaging and no one can figure anything out, you’re not crazy.  This is a real problem.  And it can be significant enough to impact your ability to eat or drink. 

In Eastern Medicine, having a lump in your throat that cannot be swallowed is called “plum pit qi”.  It is typically caused by a strong emotions or stress.  Conveniently, acupuncture treatments are able resolve this and there is an actual herbal formula made just for this problem. 

I always say, when Western Medicine has failed you, head straight for Eastern Medicine.  (So true for many problems we have in our lives).  And this is one of those times where you may just find significant relief in the “alternative medicines” where there is no hope on the western front.
