Swallowing difficulty
I am having swallowing difficulty...i become very stressed due to this! Sometimes i loose hope that will i be able to eat food like i used to eat before! From 1 month i am suffering from this issue, my endoscopy also done that revealed ESOPHAGITIS GRADE A,LAX LES! BLOOD WORK CAME NORMAL! I am on PPI from one month (DDR 30), I FEEL LIKE BURP ALSO ARISES IN THROAT! I am worried a lot as my age is just 18, Does Esophagitis causes swallowing difficulty? How long does it takes for throat symptoms to heal in Esophagitis hue to GERD? KINDLY HELP ME...I am loosing hope as whatever i eat it sticks in throat and then it goes down slowly!
Hi...based on your history you may might be suffering from GERD!! There are several causes of GERD...most common one is stress..
As u have already got endoscopy done and there is no mechanical obstruction....which is a good thing...
Esophagitis due to GERD is curable...provided u don't lose the hope and continue with the lifestyle changes and use medications as advised!!
Remember "the more u stress...more stress hormone is released...more acid is secreted...more time for recovery"
Next Steps
if possible post the endoscopy report!
