Sounds like: an ESOPHAGEAL issue ( refux, hiatal hernia, stricture) and a "hands on" examination would be helpful the diagnosis and treatment of any/all of these issues! DO NOT POSTPONE ! There is a reason for your discomfort and it is more likely than not "simple" and NOT dangerous! Hope this is helpful! Dr Z
