Difficulty swallowing
I am a 19 year old male with a sore throat and a hoarse voice for months now. I have developed difficulty swallowing and breathing, food often feels to be stuck in my throat. I have a history of acid reflux that has been getting worse for the past few weeks, my physician said that it is very unlikely for me to have a tumor due to my age and gave me acid reflux medicine without further testing and told me to see him again in a month. Could he be wrong and could it be too late in a month?
