Why Am I Having Feeling Of Food Struck In Throat After Swallowing?
I have a swallowing problem. after I eat it feels like I have food stuck under the roof of my mouth. Its been going on for a couple of years and I am scheduled for a endoscopy. I had a barium swallow which showed nothing irregular. It feels like it is in the same area that if you were to snuff to get rid of phlegm from your nasal cavity.

Hello!
If u have been having this complaint over many years and there has been nothing positive on barium study as well then there isn't anything alarming. If you are scheduled for an endoscopy well good. I would prefer u to meet an otolaryngologist as well because of the post nasal drip that you describe more likely to be due to allergy. Hope I have answered your query.
