A member asked:
How can you tell if thrush is in your esophagus.. chest pain? throwing up? how can you tell if you have fungal infection
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Esophageal thrush: The primary symptoms of esophageal thrush include chest pain, particularly when swallowing, difficulty swallowing, nausea and/or vomiting, and occasional weight loss. The best way to diagnose it when suspected is by biopsy or scraping for a sample during endoscopy. If you are concerned that you may have this, see your doctor or a gastroenterologist. Good luck.
