Why Does My Food Get Stuck. Hope you can figure it out. There can be several different causes of dysphagia but a common one is eating something and it getting stuck.
Problems that usually involves the esophagus normally lead to swallowing problems. GERD is the most common cause of strictures but cancer and other issues can also cause them. Swallowing is difficult and you feel food is stuck in your throat.
While each bariatric surgery is different the reason food feels stuck is because the entrance into the stomach is smaller.
Food that gets stuck at the back of the throat may be accidentally forced into the rear nasal cavity. An esophageal stricture is an abnormal tightening of the esophagus. Another common cause of dysphagia is Gastroesophageal. If dysphagia leads to reduced eating then weight loss may occur.
