Dysphagia (swallowing issues) after intubation: What therapies work?

Posted by pran @pran, Feb 24, 2022

My husband was intubated 57 days. He has not been able to swallow since intubation in March 2020. Swallow therapies have not worked. Can anybody recommend a physician who deals with extreme dysphasia?

I didn’t keep the information sheets but I’m sure your speech therapist has information on them. It is a lot of work but it worked for us. He is now able to eat everything.
