Hi there, my wife have Oropharyngeal dysphagia, no matter what is eating or is drinking, It goes to the lungs and his breathing stops, anyone knows if there is treatment for this problem? Thx
Hello, you need to found some Speech Language Patologhy that have experience on Dysphagia. The treatment will depends of her situation!
@@germaynefranciscosilva2589 thx!
update us please
I may have this disorder, I’ve had it since I was a little girl. It feels like food gets stuck further down my esophagus where the neck and chest meet and it’s somewhat painful unless it stays there for a long period of time, then it begins to feel unbearable. The only thing to dislodge it from my throat is to drink water, juice, etc. My mother has the same problem as well, is it possible that Dysphagia is genetic?
A speech language pathologist can help you with dysphagia by helping you figure out how to eat safely and minimize pain, but you'll want to consult with doctors to find out what is causing it, since dysphagia is a symptom of another, usually more serious issue in the body (which yes could be genetic).
Do you also experience heartburn/acid reflux after meals? See an SLP and try to get a x ray swallow study. Sounds like it could be GERD (possibly esophageal dysphagia).
@@malithiwijayathilaka1451 I have experienced heartburn and acid reflux, but not often. Now I have noticed that my throat acts up more when I eat foods such as bread or egg yolks. Not sure if it’s an allergy or Dysphagia but I plan to make an appointment to see an SLP as soon as possible.
I think i have this problem
Did you find anything that helped you?
Relaxing the throat can help a great deal. Have small bite size meals. There are machines on the market that can crush vegetables and fruit, and leave the pulp behind. I make carrot juice with apple. It's delicious, and easy to swallow because it is not too thin. You have to experiment with the consistency that suits you best. Also temperature, ice cold, cold, warm or hot. Mum had dysphagia. I helped out at a couple of hospitals where they treated patients that had it and other health issues. Make a list of all the foods and drinks you can manage best. But, avoid any drinks with artificial sweetener such as, aspartame that is toxic. Aspartame is also known by many others names, such as amino sweet and natural. Dr Betty Martini is an authority on it. Here website is called mission possible. If you write to her I'm sure she will reply.
