Occasional difficulty swallowing usually isn't cause for concern. It may simply occur when he eats too fast or don't chews his food well enough, but persistent difficulty swallowing may indicate a serious medical condition requiring treatment. Treatments depend upon the cause, but in many cases the condition can be partially or completely corrected. He should see a doctor as soon as he can.
