A member asked:

Esophagus,throat and neck hurts bad?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Common cold?: Could be a viral infection (most likely) but also could be strep throat. Best to see you primary care provider for a more complete evaluation, and ask if a rapid strep test is appropriate. Hope this helps!

I swallowed an Advil 2 years ago without water and it got stuck in my throat and burned bad for at least a day. Will this have resulted in a stricture of my esophagus? Or would it have just healed? Does it only take one burn to cause a stricture?
