Patient Question
Hello Doctor,
I experience chest pain when swallowing food. Could you please inform me of the cause and necessary steps to take?
Answered by Dr. Jagdish Singh
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.
It seems like you are experiencing hyperacidity and acid reflux, which can cause ulceration in the food pipe and lead to painful swallowing. To confirm the condition, undergoing an endoscopy would provide a clearer diagnosis.
Thanks
