Aphagia description |
---|
Aphagia is the inability or refusal to swallow. The word is derived from the Ancient Greek prefix , meaning "not" or "without," and the suffix , derived from the verb , meaning "to eat." It is related to dysphagia which is difficulty swallowing (Greek prefix , dys, meaning difficult, or defective), and odynophagia, painful swallowing (from , odyn(o), meaning "pain"). Aphagia may be temporary or long term, depending on the affected organ. It is an extreme, life-threatening case of dysphagia. Depending on the cause, untreated dysphagia may develop into aphagia. |
