What Causes Burning In Throat Along With Difficulty While Swallowing?
I suffer from acid reflux and take Dexilant for it. However tonight I ate some rice with cumin and I ended up not being able to breath with a horrible burning sensation as though I was having an allergic reaction to it. Throat feels like it has swollen up and I m still having issues breathing. What can I do to relieve this burning and swallowing problem?
