Lonophagia: causes and symptoms

Lonophagy is called pain in the esophageal tube, which occurs when a food lump passes through. This symptom should be distinguished from other signs specific to esophageal diseases, such as dysphagia, chest pain and epigastric pain.The causes of the morphological basis for the development of dysphagia are pronounced changes in the wall of the esophageal tube, which can cover not only the mucous membrane, but also deeper layers (submucosal space, muscular and connective tissue membrane). In various diseases, they can dominate:- inflammatory processes (GERD, esophagitis);- necrotic processes (esophageal cancer, penetrating chest wounds);- erosive changes.Any of the above processes are the basis of pronounced clinical symptoms, in particular, the cause of the appearance of monophagia.Characteristic of the symptomoDynophagia differs from the traditionally described pain in the chest area by the appearance of the symptom at the time of passage of the food lump, that is, during the meal. In the initial stages of any disease, dysphagia occurs only when a large and sufficiently dense piece of food passes through, that is, with significant pressure on the morphologically altered walls of the esophageal tube.In the future, the occurrence of lonophagy is provoked by the passage of not such large pieces, but already sufficiently chewed food, in some cases (with a cancerous tumor) – the promotion of even semi-liquid and liquid food.The patient may describe lonophagy in different ways. These can be both moderate and sufficiently pronounced pain sensations (it depends on the individual pain threshold of sensitivity), baking, pressing or burning in nature, having different duration. In clinical practice, it is also important to have only dysphagia or a combination of this symptom with other symptoms (nausea, vomiting, dysphagia, etc.).What diseases can cause lonophagy?Lonophagia is not a supporting sign of any one disease, as it can be noted by the patient in the following cases:- gastroesophageal reflux; - benign neoplasms;- malignant invasive processes;- traumatic damage to the esophageal tube.In all cases, a certain set of laboratory and instrumental studies is required to determine the cause of monophagia. Treatment is prescribed based on the detected disease. 온라인카지노추천 은 모든 플레이어가 자신의 취향에 맞는 엔터테인먼트를 찾을 수 있는 곳입니다. 슬롯, 포커, 룰렛, 블랙잭 및 기타 게임을 24시간 내내 즐기실 수 있습니다. 이 플랫폼은 안정적인 보안 시스템을 갖추고 있으며 사용자 친화적인 인터페이스를 통해 게임과 보너스를 빠르게 탐색할 수 있습니다. 행운을 시험해보고 승자가 되세요!
