Question 1

what will the treatment be for mild esophageal dysmotility?

Accepted Answer

No great therapy: Chew food well, earring sitting up and wash down with liquids.

Question 2

causes of esophageal burning? have eoe and esophageal dismotility.

Accepted Answer

Esophagitis: Eosinophilic esophagitis can cause spasm and delay in esophageal motility. Are u currently being treated? You need to be on a ppi +/- a inhaled steroid that should be swallowed to treat the inflammation..  The burning most likely represents acid reflux that you are having in addition to eoe. You should consult with your GI as soon as possible.

Question 4

would nonspecific esophageal dysmotility make botox injjection for damaged recurrent laryngeal nerve contraindicated? are there better options?

Accepted Answer

Botox for RLN?: Unspecific esopageal dysmotility should not be affected by laryngeal Botox treatment. 
It is difficult to suggest options since I am unclear of what your voice and swallowing issues are, what caused the rln damage and what your vocal cords actually look like. Are you under the care of an ent/ otolaryngologist/ laryngologist?

Question 5

if antireflux operation fails. can esophageal resection be an effective treatment solution for severe non-specific esophageal dysmotility and gerd?thx

Accepted Answer

Last resort: I suggest finding a GI expert familiar with using Botox or inhibition therapy. The GERD originates in the gastric acid of your stomach.

Question 6

hi, can gerd cause esophageal dysmotility? i dont mean achalasia or sclerodermia. only gerd (les 3mmhg). i have both and non specific. thanks

Accepted Answer

They go together: Your les (lower esophageal sphincter) is hypotensive. The pressure is too low. Normally it should be above 10mmhg. Therefore acid from the stomach can freely go up to your esophagus and therefore gerd. If your physician told you that rest of manometry was unremarkable, you may still have scleroderma. Some foods and medications can decrease the les pressure. Achalasia has a high les pressure.

Question 7

if extensive gi workup showed no structual problems or ca of esophagus (only esophageal dysmotility)  is chonic sore throat & chest 2 yrs later gi?

Accepted Answer

Sore throat: Stomach acid, post nasal drip, allergies, smoking, dry weather are common causes of sore throat.

Question 8

meds for nonspecific esophageal dysmotility?  food sticks so heartburn & sore throat.  behavioral measures better (soft food, lots of water)?

Accepted Answer

Diet and maybe meds: A difficult problem. Be sure it is not related to nerve issues such as in diabetic gastroparesis. Trying to eat small meals throughout the day (grazing) can help. Be sure to avoid irritants such as caffeine and tobacco as both make heartburn worse by relaxing the muscles at the opening of the stomach. Some meds like Erythromycin and metochopramide may be needed to stimulate movement.Fluids good.

Question 9

how do you diagnose dysmotility disorders?

Accepted Answer

Specific test: if it's sperm, then observing them by a trained observer (fertility or urologist). If it is overall ciliary dysmotility, if you have NOT had numerous bronchitis problems and fertility problems, you ain't got it.

Question 10

what are esophageal spasms?

Accepted Answer

Let  me explain: Esophageal spasms are painful muscle contractions that affect your esophagus, the hollow tube between your throat and your stomach. Esophageal spasms can feel like sudden, severe chest pain that lasts from a few minutes to hours.
