Hi Jayma;

   Could be globus hystericus. The condition doesn't need major causes.
   I've had the tight throat feeling often and at a time, nearly continous. Went to ER to be checked for a possible allergic reaction. There was no angioedema ( throat swelling ).
   Dx was globus and it is a bit scary! Yes; You say you've had stress w/o this, but, each of us is getting older and our bodily responses do change.
   If you present with a rash and the tight or choking feeling at the same time, to ER fast!!
   Best wishes in getting to the bottom of this.

I get this with anxiety sometimes where it feels like ur throat is gonna close on you.. it is not fun and not a good feeling i would ask ur doctor if it could be that. do u have any other symptoms at all?

Is it a lump in your throat or tightness?
