This is not a recognized idiom in English, but it refers to one. The idiom is "to have a frog in one's throat," which means the tightening discomfort felt during an intense emotion, or just before weeping. It may also be used for the simple need to clear one's throat for speaking.

.It means somebody who is hoarse or needs to clear his throat
