Seek help: This could represent issues with food refluxing back up from the stomach or food diverting into the back of the nasopharynx during the swallowing process, instead of heading down the food pipe into the stomach(so called velopharyngeal insufficiency). The input of your doctor will really help determine the best course of treatment.
