I swallowed something hard and it hurt but can't remember as it was a few days ago. Now it hurts to swallow food like too big of bites. Seems I'm not chewing small enough to get down the pipe :) Wondering how long this scrape will last on my esophagus? Hot teas/coffee seem to sooth it. Any suggestions? I just moved from the USA to India and not sure I want to visit the doc right away. Would like to try and solve on my own first.
