Answer:
For a "frog" that feels like a lump in the throat or that something is in there when you swallow, which doctors call the globus sensation, Franco says inflammation is probably responsible. This can be brought on by a bad cold, reflux, a viral infection, allergies, or enlarged tonsils.
smell a rat Suspect something is wrong, especially a betrayal of some kind. For example, When I didn't hear any more from my prospective employer, I began to smell a rat. This expression alludes to a cat sniffing out a rat.
Someone who has no interest in physical intimacy may be labeled a "cold fish". There are many different ways a person can describe an individual who seems aloof and lacking in emotion and personality. He could use a literal description or he may choose to use an idiom instead.
