Burger Piece Stuck In Throat, Constricted Esophagus. Treatment?
I got a piece of burger stuck in my throat a couple days ago (not sure if it's the bread or tomato causing the problem) and have only been able to swallow small amounts of food since. I have a constricted esophagus and this has happened a couple times before where I had to go to the hospital. Anything I should try before resorting to having it surgically removed?

You might try drinking little quantity of lukewarm water.If still the problem is not resolved its better to go for surgical opinion.Hope this works.
