Can't burp? How retrograde cricopharyngeal dysfunction is treated

Retrograde cricopharyngeal dysfunction (R-CPD) is a condition that impairs the ability to burp due to an overly tight cricopharyngeal muscle, which is located in the upper oesophageal sphincter. This rare condition can lead to discomfort from trapped gas, bloating, chest pain and social embarrassment. While burping is a simple reflex for most, those with R-CPD cannot release gas from the stomach through the oesophagus. Understanding the symptoms, diagnosis, and available treatments can help manage this condition effectively.

How serious is salivary gland surgery?

Salivary gland surgery, though commonly performed, is a significant procedure due to the complexity of the anatomy in and around the salivary glands. It involves removing part or all of one of the three major salivary glands (parotid, submandibular, or sublingual) or smaller minor glands. The seriousness of this surgery depends on several factors, including the type of condition being treated, the gland involved and the potential risks. Professor Stuart Winter, leading ENT surgeon, tells us all about it in this article.
