First of all, when you can eat normally, you should take a balanced diet. When you have difficulty swallowing, you should take a high-protein and high-calorie diet to ensure nutrition.

Secondly, patients with dysphagia should change their diet, eat more soft food and semi-liquid food, and eat less and more meals. For those with weakness in limbs or neck, the eating posture and utensils can be adjusted.

In addition, patients with excessive phlegm who can eat normally can consider eating some expectorant foods, such as pears, radishes, chrysanthemums, gourds, bamboo shoots, lilies, apples, sugar cane, Siraitia grosvenorii, water chestnut, laver, tofu, tremella, celery and grapefruit.

If you can't eat, you can consider nasal feeding or PEG (gastrostomy). As for which one to choose, it depends on the economic situation.
