What Causes Difficulty In Swallowing?
I have a head and spine injury and nerve damage. I am having problems swallowing and it feels like food is stuck. Its been getting worse and now when I cough by sides hurt right below my chest? Dysphagia I read could be it but doesn t explain the pain? Some side of kidney infection from it? I have also been real bloated. Any ideas?

ur problem is no way related to kidney.
Head injury can rarely lead to difficuilty swallowing .
u need a detailed examination of ur pharynx and larynx .
please consult a ENT doctor near by.
endoscopic examination of larynx may be needed
