Difficulty swallowing saliva?

i was looking at other questions like this and i dont know if im experienceing the same exact problem and none of the answers given seemed like it could help me. ive had difficulty swallowing saliva for as long as i can remember it didnt stay for a couple days and go it could happen alot one day and not the other i noticed people saying they have alot of mucus in their throat i do have this problem but that doesnt have to do with my swallowing because i already can't swallow when i do get alot of mucus its thick, uncomfortable and right at the back. i have no difficulting drinking or eating just not spit. ive also read about someone who drinks water to help and an answer saying thats good but if that persons like me you end im drinking so much your stomach hurts and you always gotta urinate ive read causes like stress, (i dont really think im stress) certain meds (im not taking any meds just ocassionally a pain reliever or allergy relief) and just thinking about it to much (i dont start thinking about it untill about the second unsuccesful swallow) i have no pain in my chest or esophogus but my throat muscles get sore after a while of unsuccessful swallowing. it doesnt feel like theres a blockage or pain in the neck section i just cant seem to force it down. i dont know if the other people haveing a problem like this cant do it at all i can do it i just have to try several times. so if you think your haveing the same problem or think you you can give me an answer i havent seen please respond thank you sorry i read a few more questions before submitting this so i got more details i dont have excess salvia if anything my mouth will be dry but not my throat and i have this problem sometimes even when my mouth is dry also i read someones saying they felt that that their throat would clamp shut i feel the throat muscles contracting but not clamped shut. also this doesnt hinder my breathing at all i havent reread this so i dont know if im repeating myself but ive had no surgery or been on any meds in years (well i forgot to say i occasionally have to use a rescue inhaler for asthma) im just trying to get a lot of details but it seems like im rambling so basically im asking 1. If anys experienceing the same problem? 2. Anyone can give me a cause or simple treatment? (i havent and will not go to the doctors for this so please dont suggest that i have no health insurance and i will only go to the doctors if i think im dieing and this is more of an annoyance than life threatening) thanks again
