What Could Cause Difficulty In Swallowing?
my daugther recently felt something weird in her throat and I just saw her epiglottis. I've read that it's normal but seems to stop her from swallowing when she feels it. Tends to raise in the afternoon throughout dinner time. What do you recommend?

it will be present from childhood.
this condition will not cause difficulty in swallowing.
if problem persists u have search reasons other than this for difficuilty in swallowing.
