People commonly refer to muscles as being 'tense' or 'tight'. My girlfriend, for example, when she gives me a back massage, will say 'wow, the muscles in this spot on your back are really tight'.
I don't really understand this. Your muscle fibres are tight when you contract them, conciously or not. A contraction must result, however, in a movement, or a counter-contraction from an opposing muscle. How can a muscle be 'tight' in absence of movement or counter-contractions?

When I eat pasta, the pasta sometimes seems to get stuck on the way down. It causes me to be very uncomfortable (somewhere between discomfort and pain).
It either works its way down by itself or I have to spit up kind of like a baby.

Any ideas what it could be? It doesn't happen everytime I eat pasta. About 1 in every 6 or 8 times. It has only happened one time with a meal other than pasta and that was quite some time ago.
