A member asked:

Panic and anxiety daily. swallow air a lot. sometimes it feels like food gets stuck at air bubble for a sec. no pain, burn just minor sensation. ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Get follow up: Food does not usually get stuck at an air bubble. If you have a recurrent sensation of food getting stuck then you may have a narrowing in your esophagus. It can also be from spasms of the esophagus from anxiety. I would suggest seeing your doctor to try and get the anxiety relieved and if you still have the sensation you may need to see a GI doctor to look your esophagus. I wish you the best.
