Patient's question:
What is the reason for a sore throat when drinking water?Doctor's answer:
This situation is more likely to be considered diaphragmatic spasm. It is recommended that you first pay attention to your diet and avoid extremely cold, spicy, irritating, and greasy foods. You can apply cold compresses to your abdomen appropriately and take oral medications to enhance gastric motility, which is beneficial for stabilizing the symptoms. If you have acid reflux or heartburn, you can take Omeprazole orally. If the symptoms persist without improvement or worsen, it is timely to go to the hospital for an endoscopy to conduct a thorough examination. Based on the results, symptomatic treatment should be administered.
