Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
He may have oesophagus cancer. If it is advanced stage then surgery is not possible. Treatment of choice remains chemotherapy and radiotherapy. For that you should go to fully equipped hospital with all facilities. You can go to AIIMS hospital or other and start treatment as early as possible.
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.
