A member asked:
What to do if i am feeling like when i eat i get swollen, and food stuck in my throat its very uncomfortable, ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dysphagia: Greetings. The swallowing difficulty may be related to a stricture in your esophagus or a cricopharyngeal muscle spasm. These areas can be easily evaluated with a barium swallow examination. A GI specialist or a Surgeon usually can treat this with an esophageal dilation if indicated. See your doctor for the X-ray order.
