Possible esophagus problem
Ever since my surgery on my esophagus, ii get weird chest pain and after i swallow, air gets sucked in, like a reverse burp, its as if there is a vacuum in my esophagus and so it sucks air whenever there is an opening, i get this 2-3 times a month and the longer it lasts, the more it hurts. i my esophagus sucks in so much air that i have to burp to get it back out and that only makes the pain worse, after an hour into it my body starts to weaken and saliva builds up rapidly in my mouth, it lasts for about 4-5 hours.
