Hi Lybrate user, you can take a x-ray or endoscopy to know the exact reason. Eat small meals frequently instead of three large meals daily Avoid sticky foods, such as jam or peanut butter Avoid large pieces of food. Cut it to small and have it A lump of boiled rice can help if something like a fish bone is trapped in the esophagus.
