Hi
Welcome to

It seems to me that you have got chemical burn because of the drug that stuck in your esophagus and remained there for some time.
You don't need to worry, the dysphagia will be over with days and you will feel better.
During mean time you can opt for liquid or semi solid diet.
You can also take pantoprozol 40mg once daily for 10 days in morning empty stomach.
Hope my answer will help you and you will be fine soon.
Regards............
