Hi, your husband is in mountains today, and had a fall to the back on to a tree. Now he has heartburn, chestpain, pain in the throat, and back. Difficulty in eating. It appears that there might be some swelling by the side of the oesophagus, bony or soft tissue causing the symptoms. I advise you to consult a surgeon for diagnosis, esophagoscopy or M.R.I. may reveal the fact. Thank you.
