Suggest Treatment For Throat Pain,difficult Swallowing And Chest Pain In A Child
I recently developed this habit of my that thing in the middle of my throat into like an S movement. Idk how it started or how long but I have stopped. But sometimes I do do it on accident. Ever since then I ve had pains in my throat and recently parts of my food don t go down and I can feel it kind of just sitting there or trying to come back up. I can feel and hear a clicking when I swallow. Most of my pain has recently been on my left side and I even have a chest pain kind of by my heart. I m 14. I m just getting kind of concerned because the symptoms have gotten worse. I sometimes get pains between my shoulder blades and the back of my neck. I m not sure if that s related though.
When do you usually feel the difficulty in swallowing? Does this happen to both solids and liquids? Is there a specific time in a day when you feel this. Based on your description, it seems that you can have Gastroesophageal reflux disease. There are several food that can make your stomach produce more acid like spicy food, carbonated drinks, caffeine, chocolates. Try to stay away from these food. Stress can also contribute to the hyperacidity. But of course, it is still best to consult your Physician to rule out more serious problems. Hope you feel better.
