What Causes Burning Sensation In The Esophagus?

Hi, I m a 21 year old girl in good shape. In the past few days I ve been experiencing a symptom never had before. Every time I drink whatever kind of alcohol after a few seconds my esophagus burns for a moment an then the feeling stops. The burning doesn t occur when swallowing any other thing. I also feel very stuffed every time I eat, but this has been happening for a while, in order not to feel stuffed I must eat very little and very slowly. What could the problem be?Thanks in advance
