If you're having pain please call your doctor.

I had the same issue and when I would drink I would take smaller sips and not big gulps and that really helped me

Please call your Dr. - there's far too many causes and some serious. Only your Dr can assure you.

I had to take baby sips for the first several days or else the water would get stuck and hurt. Hopefully you find relief soon.

If your Dr. doesn't find any issues, then try sipping as mentioned as well as experimenting with the temperature and consistency. I found I could not tolerate cold beverages initially and I had to Water down my Protein shakes as they were way too thick.
