My. Son was eating a steak about 5 hrs. Ago and he felt like a piece got stuck in his chest area( in the esophagus . He can t swallow water unless it s a very tiny amount and he has a lot of build up of mucus that he is constantly spitting out. He has tried everything from gargling to trying to make himself throw up which didn t work. . He does not know if there is still something stuck. He is 27 yrs old. Maybe he is having an allergic reaction to spices on the meat. What do you think is going on?
