I feel something like a plum pit stuck in my throat that won't go down. (Globus Sensation / Maehaekgi)
This is 'Maehaekgi (梅核氣),' a condition where vital energy (qi) becomes stagnant in the throat due to stress. It resembles stress-induced reflux esophagitis. While diagnostic tests show no organic findings, the patient feels intensely frustrated by the overwhelming discomfort. If ENT medications prove ineffective, Banha-Hubak-tang (Pinellia & Magnolia Bark Decoction), which promotes qi circulation, is the answer.
