10 Q&A: WHY DOES IT HURT WHEN I SWALLOW? - Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes


Serves: 5

Ingredients

Directions:

Dr. Ghosh: Having difficulty swallowing foods can sometimes feel like foods are sticking in your throat.

If you experience pain or difficulty swallowing, follow these dietary modifications:
Choose soft or semisolid foods because they are easier to swallow.
Thicken liquids with cornstarch or powdered milk so they go down easier. Eat mashed potatoes or peas.
Eat small, frequent meals at room temperature.
Avoid spicy, acidic or hard, coarse foods.
Sit up and concentrate on coordinating your breathing and swallowing. Allow one to two minutes between each bite.
Avoid talking while chewing and swallowing.
