Pill in Throat: Most pills will disolve slowly within a few minutes. If this persists, see an ENT or GI specialist - sometimes a small pocket or diverticulum developes that catch food or medications but this is usually on the left side. Some pills can actually burn the throat (tetracyclines) so if the issue persists ask your doctor for a referral.

Are you supposed to eat solid foods if you have esophagitis? Is there a specific diet? My doctors suspects, but we are waiting for tests. Gave me no diet instructions. Can swallow food, but some liquid comes back up instantly into my throat. Scared?
