What Causes Discomfort In Chest While Swallowing?
It feels like something is stuck in my chest, like I didn t swallow all the way. The discomfort (not pain) is on its 2nd day. It s moved from my solar plexus area yesterday and then down just a bit and now back up to solar plexus area again. Not sweating, not noticeably short of breathe but do want to take a deep breathe periodically.

U have not mentioned your age. The discomfort can jst be due to a Gastroesophageal reflux for which u will need antacids . However if the problem persists it will require further evaluation probably an Xray chest and a GIscopy by gastroenterologist
