Asking For Self, Male, 21 Years old, Lahore
Whenever I eat, I feel like some food is left in my throat or going down slowly and is sticking to my throat. I also cough a little after eating. I read about a condition called dysphagia, which means difficulty swallowing. I am worried and want to know how to check if I have it. Am I at risk of food going the wrong way into my lungs (aspiration)? I am 21 years old. Please help me understand what this could be and what I should do. Which doctor should i look for? To diagnose it??
any anxiety stress you are facing? what kind of thoughts come in brain ? do you observe sudden increase of heart beat? if you drink liquid than what you feel?

Visit physician/gastroenterologist. They will do some tests including CBC and if on history may do endoscopy.
