Hello doctor,
I am 29 years old this year. My symptoms are just full in the neck, the feeling that food can't go down. I can't eat when I'm full, when I'm hungry, I can't burp, no pain at all, just full in the neck. So the doctor asked me if the choking in the neck is gastroesophageal reflux? Thank you doctor.
