Do you have difficulty swallowing? Then you have a condition called Dysphasia. Dysphasia can be caused by a couple of different factors, muscle issues or a disconnect between the brain and the muscles used in swallowing. Sarah Nelson is a Speech Pathologist at OSF Saint Luke Medical Center and Sarah joined Wake Up Tri-Counties to talk about Dysphasia, what causes it and how a Speech Therapist can go about diagnosing and treating Dysphasia. If you are having trouble swallowing, contact your family doctor and you may get a referral to meet with Sarah at OSF Saint Luke Medical Center.
