Brief Answer:
get oesophageal manometry

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Welcome to HealthcareMagic .

This could be either due to block in the oesophagus or decreased motility of the oesophagus.

If block is there then fluids pass easy then solid foods. If motility is decreased then solids pass easy then fluids.

I suggest you to get your endoscopy and oesophageal manometry done to diagnose block or motility disorder and treatment accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query . If any further queries are there I would love to help.

Regards
Dr.Deepika Patil
