Hello, your UGI endoscopy is suggestive of Grade 2B esophageal corrosive injury. It is better that you should get admitted for treatment in a good hospital. Nasogastric feeding tube may be placed for feeding. After stabilisation, you could be discharged from hospital later. You need to regular follow up in hospital after discharge for monitoring your progress. You may need a surgery later.
