A member asked:

I have problems swallowing certain foods i take prilosec 40mg twice a day along with zantac 300mg at night will a digestive enzyme w/o probiotic help

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Globus versus...: A ball or lump sensation in your throat past which you can easily swallow is called "globus"--a functional problem that acid blockers likely won't help. Nor would it likely address esophageal spasm, dysmotility, or eosinophilic esophagitis. Have you had manometry?Might want endoscopy for definitive biopsy +/- address peptic stricture that may constrict the swallowing tube & benefit from dilation.
