While it may sound like a fancy piece of jewelry, a Schatzki ring is actually a medical condition that causes dysphagia or difficulty swallowing. Often, minor swallowing problems occur when you don't chew your food well enough or eat too fast. But if you persistently struggle swallowing or feel like food is stuck in your throat, you might have a Schatzki ring. Talking to your doctor for an accurate diagnosis and treatment is the first step toward healing.
