If it is true pathological cricopharyngeal spasm - u will need to take anti spasmodic medicines and/ or relax to a great extent to relieve the muscle spasm. C spasm is spasm at the lower end of pharynx - giving difficulty in swallowing. If not relieved by medication needs surgical dilatation. Destress and also take calcium supplements. Do follow up with me
