Specializes in Gastroenterology

Choking: Choking on food is fairly common, but usually needs to be checked out. It can be a function of a partial blockage in the esophagus or a problem with the swallowing mechanism itself. Either way, you should see your doctor or a gastroenterologist for evaluation. Good luck.
