Hello. Dysphagia is the medical term for difficulty (a sensation of choking in the throat) when performing the act of swallowing. This symptom is often caused by disease in the esophagus or disease in the oropharynx or by compression on the esophagus. There are many causes of dysphagia (a feeling of choking in the throat) so it is difficult to conclude what is wrong with a cough with a feeling of choking in the throat. This includes esophageal cancer.
The degree of difficulty in swallowing also varies from person to person and at each stage of the disease. In mild cases, the patient can pass food through the esophagus gently with pain when swallowing. When the condition is more severe, when both solid food and liquid pass through the esophagus can cause vomiting, the patient cannot eat or drink.
Swallowing may occur at the same time as other symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, cough, difficulty breathing.
Therefore, your child needs to be diagnosed as soon as possible to increase the chances of being able to cure the disease and recover. You should go for a health check-up at a reputable medical facility or one of the Vinmec Health System hospitals nationwide to get advice and guidance from experienced doctors.
Thank you for sending your question to Vinmec. Best regards!
