La “disfagia” es un término médico utilizado para describir la dificultad para tragar. Esta condición puede afectar tanto a líquidos como a alimentos sólidos y puede ser causada por diversos problemas en el proceso de deglución.
La disfagia puede ser consecuencia de diferentes condiciones médicas, como enfermedades neuromusculares, daño en los nervios o músculos del esófago, reflujo gastroesofágico, obstrucciones o estrechamientos del esófago, entre otros. También puede estar asociada con problemas en la boca o la garganta que dificultan la manipulación y el paso de los alimentos hacia el estómago.
Los síntomas comunes de la disfagia incluyen sensación de atragantamiento, dolor o molestias al tragar, tos o asfixia durante las comidas, pérdida de peso involuntaria y regurgitación de alimentos.
Es importante que las personas que experimentan dificultades para tragar busquen atención médica para obtener un diagnóstico adecuado y determinar la causa subyacente. El tratamiento de la disfagia dependerá de la causa específica y puede incluir terapia de deglución, cambios en la dieta, medicamentos o procedimientos médicos.
La disfagia puede ser un problema serio y potencialmente peligroso si no se aborda adecuadamente, ya que puede llevar a la desnutrición y a la aspiración de alimentos hacia los pulmones, aumentando el riesgo de infecciones respiratorias.
Si tú o alguien que conoces experimenta dificultad para tragar, es importante buscar atención médica lo antes posible para recibir un diagnóstico y tratamiento adecuados.[pt_view id=”ea234dcbkf”]
