definition |
Definition: Having trouble swallowing (dysphagia) is a symptom that accompanies a number of neurological disorders. The problem can occur at any stage of the normal swallowing process as food and liquid move from the mouth, down the back of the throat, through the esophagus and into the stomach, to coughing or choking because the food or liquid is entering the windpipe (aspiration). |
