A member asked:
Why do i feel like there's food stuck in my throat? right by the collar bone and it feel difficult to swallow
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dysphagia: There could be many reasons for difficulty swallowing food, or dysphagia, and it usually requires an evaluation to determine the cause and to map out a treatment plan. I would make an appointment to see your doctor. In the meantime, I would consider a short course of omeprazole 20 mg once a day. Do not skip the evaluation, even if the interim medication helps. Good luck.
