Can an esopgageal ring cause pressure around the Adams Apple? And pulling on the ears? Making them pop? Worried it will block my airway
No. Can a esophageal ring cause airway blockage and pressure around Adams apple and pullung of the ears?
No. The ring typically is close to the union with the stomach. Symptoms include difficulty swallowing solids and if they get stuck a sensation of cloaking. Aiway blockage could be caused by food getting stuck but would be unumlikely as it is far away from the trachea. No connection with ear sympt.
