[|Human|] im having a weird crunching feeling coming from my gland area on my neck when i put a little pressure there, and with little force i can move my throat where i would think it would be that easy... it feels like im popping it to the side a bit and i was just wondering what it might be.
[|AI|]  Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query you have pressure around the neck area. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like stress and anxiety, acid reflux, sore throat or thyroid problem. I would suggest you to do warm saline gargles, apply warm compresses and eat soft, non-spicy and no acidic food. If condition doesn't get well then consult ENT specialist for proper examination. Doctor may order throat swab test, viral culture test along with examination with laryngoscope. Doctor may prescribe antibiotics along with anti-inflammatory. Doctor may refer you to gastroenterologist for acid reflux and endocrinologist for thyroid problem. Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes,
