You don't say how old you are, but you need to see an ear, nose, and throat doctor. It could be a polyp, a cyst, a tumor, a hernia, an abscess... Just get in to see a doctor and he'll look down your throat and see if there's anything there that is interfering with your ability to swallow.

Have you recently started any new kind of medication or drug? Many meds make you have a dry throat which feels like a lump in your throat. Drink lots of water, or clear liquid and you should feel better. Avoid soda.

It's possible that you have post-nasal drip, if you are bothered by allergies, or that you have globus. It's also possible that you are fine. It's best to checked out by your primary health care provider. If a referral is in order, it will most likely be to an ENT who can perform a laryngoscopy to see if there is a structural defect that would explain the phenomenon.

Could be GERD, anxiety, enlarged thyroid, etc.
It's certainly something to see a doctor about.
