Difficulty Swallowing
The problem of swallowing, also known as dysphagia, is nothing to be dismissed. The condition could be a symptom of cancer of the esophagus. Even if it’s only mildly uncomfortable to swallow food and drink, it’s important to have a medical professional examine you to rule out a more serious cause. The American Cancer Society estimates that in 2020 alone, more than 17,000 patients will be diagnosed with cancer of the esophagus, and an alarmingly high number (16,080) of people will die from the disease.
