다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Foreign body (FB) sensation in the throat is often a common symptom encountered in clinical practice. FB sensation in throat has numerous causes mainly caused by reflex diseases such as laryngopharyngeal reflux. Its treatment has been focused on organic problems or hysteria while musculoskeletal problem has been neglected. We hereby report a patient with dysphagia and complaint of FB sensation in the throat after nasogastric tube removal. It was relieved by trigger point injection on the posterior belly of digastric muscles.
