How can I manage cricopharyngeal spasm symptoms?

In addition to medical treatments, there are also ways to manage cricopharyngeal spasm symptoms at home. For example:

  • Practice mindfulness, meditation or other relaxation techniques.
  • Drink warm beverages to help relax your throat muscles.
  • Eat smaller meals throughout the day. This helps the throat muscles stay relaxed for longer.
  • Gently massage your neck and throat.
  • Take supplements to reduce cricopharyngeal spasm. Magnesium may be particularly helpful.
  • Keep track of factors that make your symptoms worse — then avoid them.
