Hi,
when you feel food is getting stuck in your food pipe ,it may be a chronic GERD or any organic cause to be ruled out by an endoscopy or barrium swallow ,if not a manometry will give you exact answer for your problem
THIS will help you in knowing exact cause for your problem .
So get an appointment with a gastroenterologist for further management and plan.
Thank you
