A member asked:
Are there some natural remedies to help a patient with swallowing problems?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Swallowing probs: Before anyone treats swallowing problems medically or naturopathically, it pays to make sure what they are treating. Reflux disease (gerd), esophageal motility problems or strictures, or diverticula in the esophagus, for example all are serious problems that require evaluation first, and then the risks benefits and alternatives of all types of care can be discussed.
