Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You have throat cancer of stage 4. So no treatment will cure the disease. Chemotherapy and radiotherapy work as palliative treatment.

For your inflammation due to food you should take anyi inflammatory drugs to control that.

You should go for insertion of Ryles tube. Tube feeding will help you.

Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer.
Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
