HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Cancer would not be specific for the use of steamed food and rice, this means that there would more likely be discomfort for any food or drink that enters the throat.
If you notice that your symptoms are occurring with specific foods, they may need to be discontinued.
You should see your doctor for assessment if the discomfort continues.
I hope this helps
