Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have food stuck in throat while having hypertensive esophageal sphincter which is due to gastroesophageal reflux disease. It could be due to Recurrent sinusitis or post nasal drip . I would suggest you to drink warm water and do gargles on daily basis. Take medication such as Domperidone . Take steam inhalation. Avoid hot sharp spicy foods. Don't smoke. Maintain hydration level of body and take multivitamin tablets and drink warm water . If your condition keeps on persisting visit ENT specialist once and get it examined and start treatment accordingly. Doctor may also refer you to gastroenterologist. Doctor may suggest surgery in severe case .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
