Cause of Tinnitus
Loud noise
To add to my troubles, yesterday after some rigorous exercise with shoulders/upper body, I developed a sensation of crunching/clicking when I swallow. It's like the cartillage in my throat is rubbing against each other in the up and down swallowing motion. It is causing discomfort and pain.
I am Googling that it is a rare condition...

Anybody had this? Prognosis?
 
Or most likely that you have strained the muscles there.

If I push things I can get a sore throat feeling and constriction in the throat. It's the muscles that go from the back of your neck round to the front, very easy to hurt if you go too hard with exercise or your form isn't great. It can feel like you're swallowing something all the time and make noise.

Yes this is exactly what I got, I hope it goes away soon.
 
Vague throat discomfort after vigorous exercise can be a sign of a cardiac problem.

You'll notice when you strain with weights you really tense your neck. It's very common. Often clenching your teeth which tenses the neck.

When you recover and get back to the weights concentrate on form. The more you focus on the muscles you're working out the better your form will get. A common mistake (that I've made plenty) is trying to lift weights that are too heavy; if you use most of your body and throw the weights around it's too much, you should be able to control the weight in a smooth, full motion.
 
Hi dan! I have the same problem with my throat after doing exercises with my upper body just like you. My throat crunches exactly like you.

I would like to know what did you do for that ?
Thanks for your answer!
