Question Clicking Throat Issue

Got a nasty throat infection around mid December, found it very hard to swallow, was on antibiotics which partially cleared it up.

Problem was it kept recurring and has left me with a clicking/gulp noise when I swallow saliva as you would without drinking/eating.

I've been checked for glandular fever which is clear, but I do have the symptoms of it, fatigue etc.

Have an appointment with an ENT specialist next month through the GP but because of the long wait I'm eager to know what this might be.

Not bringing up any infected phlegm.

Any ideas?

I had a throat infection resulting from the pleasure of contact with someone who had this!
