Why Is The Pain In The Esophagus After Swallowing That Radiates Towards The Back And Do Not Have Heart Burn?

I have pain in the esophagus after swallowing. This has happened off and on for the past 24 years since a pregnancy but has always gone away after a few days. This time it s been a couple of weeks. Pain also radiates from the esophagus area - mostly in my back. Please note that I have not had heartburn since my pregnancy.

hello there!
Such issues always indicate gallbladder or pancrease involvement, If you dont have heartburn doesnot mean your stomach is good, there might be an ulcer too. Any ways some PPIs and a visit to gastroenterologist would suffice. he will see the gallbladder status and pancrease profile, if all clear then you would just need symptomatic treatment and more importantly diet and lifestyle modification. so need some Advice? Get one from a visit.

Good Luck
