Faulty Food Pipe  Solution 

Abhay Kumar Shah shares mudras that are easy to follow by those  who find it difficult to swallow 

Esophageal spasms are painful contractions  within the muscular tube connecting your  mouth and stomach, called the esophagus (food  pipe). 

Esophageal spasms can feel like sudden, severe  chest pain that lasts from a few minutes to  hours. Some people may mistake it for heart  pain, also called angina. 

Esophageal spasms typically occur only  occasionally and might not need treatment.  But sometimes, the spasms are frequent and  can prevent food and liquid from travelling  through the esophagus. Esophageal spasms  may interfere with your ability to eat or drink. 

Symptoms 

•  Squeezing pain in the chest. The pain is  often intense and might be mistaken for  heart pain, or angina. 

•  Difficulty in swallowing solids and liquids,  sometimes related to swallowing specific  

substances. Red wine or extremely hot or  cold liquids are more common culprits.  Besides the physical discomfort and  inconvenience, urinary incontinence takes  its toll on the patient psychologically and  socially as well. 

•  The feeling that an object is stuck in your  throat. 

•  The return of food and liquid back up your  esophagus, also called regurgitation. 

Causes 

It’s not clear what causes esophageal spasms.  However, they appear to be related to the  atypical functioning of nerves that control  the muscles you use when you swallow. A  healthy esophagus usually moves food into  your stomach through a series of coordinated  muscle contractions. Esophageal spasms make  it difficult for the muscles in the walls of your  lower esophagus to coordinate in order to move  food to your stomach.
