Detailed Answer:
Hello. Thanks for putting your query in HCM. I am a Gastroenterolgist.

Lidocaine can cause vomiting in few however it appears that vomiting may be due to the reason for which her oesophagus was streched.

I want to know what was the diagnosis made for her for stucking of food. Is it was achalasiacardia or some stricture and how much it was streched?. This will help in explaining me better. Waiting for the response. Thanks
