Joined: Apr 2009 Posts: 128 | Has anyone had to have Esophageal stretching? I am almost two years out and starting to experience increased difficulty in swallowing. My Rad Doctor told me that I may have to have a stretching procedure and that it is normal after radiation between the 2nd anf 5th year for this to occur in some head/neck patients.
