What are Swallowing Disorders & How Are They Treated? | OneWelbeck

Description:

Swallowing disorders, also known as dysphagia, refer to difficulties in the process of swallowing. It is a very common symptom affecting around 22% of adults over 50 and nearly all adults over the age of 80. New dysphagia requires a careful assessment to make an accurate diagnosis as there may be many causes. The most important thing, however, is to exclude a cancerous growth in the swallowing apparatus or on the nerves that supply them. Treatment for swallowing disorders depends on the underlying cause and severity of the condition. Consultant Gastroenterologist, Dr Rami Sweis, provides an overview of swallowing disorders, common symptoms, and how the condition can be investigated in a healthcare setting.
