Problem while swallowing

2024-02-08 08:02:14
8 days ago I swallowed a large piece of potato. While swallowing that piece I had some pain in my neck. Now whenever I swallow rice or cake or bread etc it gets swallowed . But after drinking water I feel some of  the eaten stuff is present in my bottom of my neck and the water pushes the eaten food stuff to my stomach. And also after eating I feel pain in my upper back. Is it serious? Should I go to doctor. If yes should I go to ENT or Gastroenterology? Pls explain me in detail what should I do.
