[|Human|] my 14 year old experiences severe chest pain as soon as she swallows rice. I have felt this while eating but maybe not to the same severity. Even drinking water doesnt help. It feels even more painful and doesnt go down. Have had her blood tested for celiac but it came out negative. What else could it be?
[|AI|]  Hi there, This sounds like Andalusia, which is failure of the lower esophageal sphincter to relax.  The lower esophageal sphincter is a valve that separates the stomach from the esophagus, and it prevents food and stomach acid from going back into the esophagus from the stomach. Sometimes, the sphincter is too tight and doesn't relax very well, which is called Andalusia.  The usual diagnosis for this is something called an upper GI, in which the patients Chat Doctor.  Another test she should have is manometry, which tests all the pressures throughout the esophagus. The treatment for Andalusia is something called a Heller Economy, where the muscle fibers near the lower esophageal sphincter are cut in order to allow it to relax.  This can be done laparoscopically with small incisions.  Some medications can be used, but the best treatment, especially in patients who are healthy and of young age is a Heller Economy. I hope I have answered your questions. Please feel free to contact me if you have any further questions or if you feel I haven't ad
