Discomfort Down Distal Portion Of Esophagus, Pain At Diaphragm When Food Enters. Got 4 Wisdom Teeth Out. Any Ideas?
I got four wisdom teeth out on Monday, and have had very little pain, swelling or discoloration. My only complaint is that when I swallow, I have mild discomfort down the distal portion of my esophagus, and then pain right at the level of my diaphragm when the esophagus enters the stomach. The pain is there when I swallow solid food, and thick smoothies. No pain is present when I swallow normally.

Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Pain at distal portion of esophagus and on right side is due to hyper acidity developed by antibiotics prescribed for wisdom teeth ( removal) for healing of wound.
In my opinion please take antacid syrup + antacid tablets after consultation with treating doctor.
Good luck.
