The statement that all health problems are caused by a malfunction of the nervous system are not meaningless. The nervous system controls all the processes that take place in the body. If a person is often nervous, he is persecuted by constant stress, then the result can be a serious illness.
Often people complain of a constant lump in the throat, they are difficult to swallow, and, sometimes, even breathe. They turn to profile doctors, but they can not establish a diagnosis. Few people associate a lump in the throat with irregularities in the work of the nervous system, and this may be the first symptom of pharyngeal neurosis.

Pharyngo neurosis - concept and features of
Under the neurosis of the larynx is understood the pathology of the funnel-shaped channel connectingmouth with esophagus. Pathology is expressed in loss of sensitivity of the mucosa of this canal, the length of which is within 10-12 centimeters.
The reason for the violation is a strong psycho-emotional tension, stress, constant experience. Almost every person felt a choking in the throat, tickling, coughing, which began for no apparent reason before an important meeting or performance.
In fact, this was the first symptom of pharyngeal neurosis, which disappeared gradually. The man calmed down, and his condition came back to normal.
Throat necrosis occurs due to impaired functioning of the nervous system. Since in the mucous membranes of the larynx is concentrated a large number of nerve endings, then any violation can manifest itself by a number of symptoms. With a strong nervous overstrain, the reaction occurs almost immediately.
This disease most often affects people of middle age and older. To get rid of this disease, you should definitely contact a neuropathologist or psychiatrist.
What else can cause
Neurosis of the throat is always a concomitant symptom of another disease. Symptoms similar to the occurrence of a nerve in the throat may indicate:
- throat diseases caused by infections;
- inflammatory processes occurring in the throat or larynx;
- infection of the central nervous system or complications following certain diseases;
- paralysis;
- defeat by cancer cells of the brain or its membranes;
- osteochondrosis of the spine, in particular, the cervical department;
- work in harsh conditions, harmful substances, dust, chemicals;
- strong fright and stress;
- bad habits;
- complications after taking medications.
Forms of pharyngeal neurosis describing the symptoms of
Specialists identify four main forms of pharyngo nevrosis, each of which has its own symptoms:
- anesthesia;
- hypoesthesia;
- hyperesthesia;
- paresthesia.
More on the symptoms of each form of pharyngeal neurosis:
- Anesthesia of the throat is characterized by a decrease in the sensitivity of the larynx or its complete absence. The patient has difficulty with swallowing. Usually similar symptoms occur with hysterics. Also, this may indicate the blocking of the signal, which is sent by the brain cells to the larynx. This often indicates malignant formation in the brain, infection, paralysis or multiple sclerosis.
- Hypesiology .This form has similar symptoms of manifestation with anesthesia, with the only difference being that it is more mild. The patient can swallow, although the mucous membrane of the pharynx remains insensitive. Hypesesia can occur on the background of previously transmitted diseases of a viral nature or influenza. In order for the sensitivity to be restored it will take some time. In case the symptoms do not pass, but only worsen, it is necessary to consult a doctor without fail. Neglect of treatment in some cases can lead to death, so if the sensitivity of the throat is lost, a person risks choking with food or water.
- Hyperesthesia .On the contrary, this form of pharyngoneurosis is hypersensitive. The patient complains about the difficulties in
eating. Symptoms of this form are persistent sore throat, tingling and itching. Hyperesthesia can be a consequence of tonsillitis, sore throat, or pharyngitis. Symptoms manifest themselves more clearly if a person has a habit of smoking. Also, a strong emotional overexcitation leads to difficulties with breathing. All the symptoms go away when the emotional state comes back to normal. - Paresthesia .Symptoms of this form almost repeat hyperesthesia. The picture is supplemented by the following symptoms: severe itching;a feeling of numbness;sensation of a nerve lump in the throat. Patients also complain of persistent headaches, the intensity of which increases when eating or swallowing. Paresthesia is typical for people characterized as emotionally unstable, with increased irritability. Often complaints of a lump in the throat come from women during menopause.

Approach to therapy
After the examination and diagnosis of neurosis, the doctor prescribes the necessary treatment, which is chosen solely based on the severity of the symptoms and the clinical picture.
The patient can be assigned:
- blockade based on novocaine;
- procedures for electrophoresis;
- sessions of psychotherapy by specially developed methods;
- medication;

The basis for the successful treatment of throat neurosis is the identification of the disease that caused it. If the cause is a malignant tumor, then its removal and course of chemotherapy is applied.
Massage, physiotherapy exercises and physiotherapy will help alleviate the condition of the patient, and restore the sensitivity of the larynx in case of disruption in the functioning of the musculoskeletal system.
Smoking, eating too hot or cold food, alcohol can worsen the situation even more. All this irritates the surface of the pharynx, thereby increasing the period of recovery.
