Food Getting Stuck? Don’t Ignore This | Esophagus Cancer Symptoms & Treatment Explained
Do you know what Esophageal Cancer is and how it starts?
In this short, Dr. Ashish Goel — Senior Surgical Oncologist at Action Cancer Hospital, Paschim Vihar & Faith Cancer Clinic, Shalimar Bagh explains the early warning signs and treatment of esophageal cancer.
Esophagus is the food pipe that carries food from mouth to stomach. When cancer develops here, the lumen (passage) becomes narrow, leading to difficulty in swallowing.
⚠️ Key Symptoms:
• Difficulty swallowing solid food (early stage)
• Progression to difficulty in swallowing liquids (advanced stage)
• Food getting stuck in throat
• Weight loss or discomfort
🚨 Major Risk Factors:
✔ Alcohol consumption
✔ Smoking
🔹 Diagnosis:
• Endoscopy
• Biopsy (to confirm cancer)
• Whole-body PET-CT scan (for staging)
🔹 Treatment:
✔ Chemotherapy + Surgery (early stage cases)
✔ Surgery done via laparoscopic or robotic techniques
✔ Faster recovery & fewer complications
Agar nigalne mein dikkat ho rahi hai, especially worsening over time — don’t ignore. Early diagnosis can save life.
