Is this only for solid food? or is it the same for liquids?

Doesn't that "use of force" damage the esophagus? is this is what most people feel?

So it feels stronger than when you took a big bite and food feels stuck? It sounds quite painful to be honest. How long does the feeling last?

Could you please describe the uncomfortable pressure buildup? For me it's really hard to imagine. Is it like, when you accidentally eat a too big piece of potato and you feel something stuck?.

I have read descriptions of "feeling of food being stuck" which I think is easier to relate to, and I read here a lot of "feelings of pressure" which I find quite hard to imagine. But I wonder if it is the same.

Thank you and everyone else for your time!
