Food goes very slowly down esophagus and it kind of hurts

=( Well, whenever I eat ANYTHING it goes down my esophagus really slow, and I can feel it go all the way down. It feels like when you eat bread or pretzels without water, except it's all foods that make me feel like this. It doesn't exactly hurt, it is just uncomfortable. With liquids, it is not nearly as bad, but I notice a difference. This has been going on for a month or two, maybe more. My Aunt had something like this and after ten years, nothing could go down and it just came right back up. She is better now after she got surgery, but I'm worried (Since I have similar symptoms) that I have the same thing as her. Oh and also, my throat doesn't hurt at all or feel weird or anything. I only say this because someone mentioned it could be strep throat, but it definitely is not that; I know what strep feels like. Please help me, I don't know what this is!

Hello ,I was researching on the same problem I came upon this post however after I found the solution I felt compelled to come back here and share.The main problem seems to be that your stomach is too alkaline so it makes it almost impossible for the food to digest so it stays there rots and causes many other problems.The normal stomach Ph is 1-3 acid.
There are two options
.Option 1. BETAINE HYDROCHLORIC PILLS and APPLE CIDER VINEGAR PILLS ,you take 2 of each right before you eat
Option2. Apple cider vinegar organic 1 tablespoon in 8ounces of water ,before eating,while eating,when you wake up or before bed whatever way you want to take it fine although.
Optional (you can add a tablespoon of lemon)
This will help acidify your stomach.

sorry it's BETAINE HYDROCHLORIDE not HYDROCHLORIC
I use the over the counter omeprozole but only occasionally when i notice im having difficulty often. Meat is the worst. It goes down slowly and sometimes stops so i cant eat and have to go throw up before i can continue my meal. If i take the omeprozole genereric from walmart it goes away for a while.
This happens to me everyday I eat even with me drinking it happens sometimes it hurts so bad I have to stop eating and wait for it to go down and just sit there breathing slow idk what to do about it
There has to be an all natural solution to this. The medicines that the doctors could be prescribing probably has side effects that comes along with it creating other problems!
We pay for perscriptions in the uk
No that's not true, those who work PAY for prescriptions! £8.00 per script item! Bruise who don't work, get theirs free!!
Here in the UK we pay almost £9 per item, plus taxes to cover our health system, but the care is free at the point of use, i.e. if you go to the doctor or hospital.
In Scotland our prescriptions are free.
yeh but you have celtic
i'd rather pay and not have them!
I see on here there are a lot of people with the same problem. me too !
but the cause of mine was narrowing of the esophagus. I had it "stretched".
I think it's happening again but I read that taking an alka seltzer will break up the
stuck food or baking soda in water. Do not drink plain water. Good luck..
