Swallowing difficulty

2020-08-10 13:37:28
I am having swallowing difficulty and it started after tonsillitis! I took antibiotic course prescribed by ENT and still tonsils are swollen, my doctor is saying you have GERD and that is contributing to swallowing difficulty but if it is like that then why anti reflux treatment by him is not working! All tests done CBC,TSH,CRP,ESR,SGPT,ENDOSCOPY...ALL TESTS NORMAL JUST WHAT CAME IN ENDOSCOPY THAT IS ESOPHAGITIS GRADE A AND ITS 15 DAYS I AM TAKING TREATMENT FOR THAT BUT STILL PROBLEM IN SWALLOWING! I want to know wht is this problem and why its not going after treatment also! If there's nothing wrong in reports then why i am still having swallowing difficulty ! Everything started after tonsils
