A member asked:
Difficulty swallowing 5 days after endoscopy with dilation?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dysphagia: Your endoscopist should be informed about this difficulty swallowing. He/she knows the status of your esophagus and gastroesophageal sphincter having just visualized them. Perhaps this will turn out to be a temporary problem treated with a full liquid or very soft solid diet. Nevertheless the gastroenterologist will want to know about this dysphagia and whether it's from the throat or esophagus.
