It is impossible to say whether esophageal diverticulum will be fine for the rest of one’s life. However, esophageal diverticulum cannot be cured by itself, and the need for treatment should be considered according to the size of the diverticulum. 1. If the diverticulum is small, most of the diverticulum will have no obvious symptoms, and will not affect the digestion and absorption of food, and will not have too much effect on health, so it does not need special treatment, but whether the diverticulum will increase in size in the future is not clear. 2. When the diverticulum enlarges, there may be shortness of breath, cough, chest pain, vomiting, nausea and other symptoms, which may not only lead to infection and difficulty in swallowing, but also lead to esophageal reflux or perforation in severe cases, and then surgical incision is required for treatment. Therefore, it is recommended that the patient should consult a physician to determine whether treatment is needed; if no treatment is needed at this time, the patient should follow the doctor’s instructions and undergo regular checkups.
