Why do you feel a little choking when eating?

Feeling a little choking in the throat when eating. Clinically, it is mainly seen in the following diseases: 1. Patients have problems with their esophagus. This condition is more often seen in patients with long esophageal tumors, especially in the middle and late stages of esophageal cancer. In early stage, the symptoms may be atypical, and the patient may feel that the swallowing is not smooth when eating, feeling that the food is in the area behind the sternum and goes down more slowly. Clinically, for this situation, it is recommended to do electronic gastroscopy, barium meal of esophagus or CT examination of esophagus, through which the diagnosis can be made clearly; 2. Patients with long throat, commonly include hypopharyngeal cancer of the pharynx. The pear-shaped fossa type of hypopharyngeal cancer will block the entrance of esophagus and cause patients to have restricted swallowing. If hypopharyngeal cancer has esophageal metastasis, patients will also have restricted swallowing and dysphagia. Other diseases that cause patients to feel like choking, such as laryngitis or central nervous system diseases, cannot be ruled out either.
