Thanks for contacting healthcare magic...

According to your complain you have problem of difficult in swallowing that may be because of esophagitis means inflammation of oesophagus.


Gastroesophageal reflux disease cause repeated acid flow towards esophagus lead to ulceration..and narrowing of esophagus. That one treated by proper drug a and diet modifications.
You don't mention you have swallowing difficulty by taking solid or liquid or both type of foods.

Immunesystem related disease also cause swallowing difficulty. Proper physical examination and history give exact idea.

Scleroderma lead to esophagus hard and narrow.
Consent a ENT specialist for further diagnosis.
Barium x ray helpful for diagnosis.
Laryoscopy examination is helpful for further diagnosis.

I hope my guidance helpful to you..
Take care.
Thank you.
