Problems swallowing?

I'm 5 days post op and when I swallow liquids I feel it go down and get stuck. It goes through in a funnel effect. I have pressure in my chest. I've tried different positions, different temperatures but no matter what I'm feeling the same thing. Having a hard time getting in my liquids. Anyone experience this ? How did you handle it ? Is there a fix ?

I'm going through the same thing. I'm 7 days post. I have found that if I just sip (barely enough in more mouth to know it's there) I don't get that feeling. Hope this helps.
