re: Anyone terrible at Mastication; do I need a Stretching?

A friend of mine has this done from time to time. I do not know what it costs(he's pretty well off) but I'm pretty sure the recovery is minimal because they don't actually do a surgery but basically stick a tube down your throat and inflate a lil balloon to stretch it out.
His throat is just sore and has a strict diet for a few days after.
This is great for the OP because it's funny to most but some of us actually know what you're struggling with.

Judging by that picture, that dude has no trouble swallowing meat

I have a good Doctor that is an expert in throat stretching techniques.
Dr. Wood - he gives free consultations.

I had a similar problem that was diagnosed as a Zenker’s diverticulum. Simple laser surgery, short recovery. I had mine fixed in 2001, no problems since.

Dude is that the little muscle that doesn't relax sometimes when you swallow at the wrong time and it HURTS LIKE HELL?
Usually happens drinking water. Gets me a bout 2-3 times a year and it's 30 seconds of serious pain.
I can't imagine that occurring all the time.

I switch between Oweo and Owlie. And occasionally to TB08 when he shows up as a suggested FB friend.

No, that would be your esophagus, I think.
This is the part at the bottom of the esophagus which ties into the top of the stomach. It is hard and doesn't expand easily. Over time I heard, or certain medications, can make it tighten up even more which makes difficult to swollow whole food which dont break up.
You can literally feel the food sitting on top the ring, like something sitting in a shelf.

Ok I think I've had this issue before but it just feels like it's stuck in your throat. Is that what it feels like to you?

Yeah, I feel bad for your sore throat and shite, but did you ever nail the girl that keeps using you for free dog sitting?
Posted on 12/9/20 at 12:08 pm to LSU Coyote
Just deep throat black dick instead of white dick and that should stretch it out enough

I’ve had the same issues. Go see a GI, they will schedule a scope, and stretch your esophagus during the scope. Procedure is nothing.

Thanks.
What is the diet like after?

Most likely correct answer here. It's called a lower esophageal stricture. Don't delay in getting it looked at in case something far more serious is causing it.

Jeez, this thread is absolutely full of homosexuality humor. Every comment could be joke of some sort.
I’m having trouble knowing when to use the sarcasm/joke meter or not.
Mastication needing stretching and all downhill from there.

Nope. I have been doing it since I was about 11. I have become very good at it.

Usually stretching it out helps me get rolling. I would encourage this.
