The esophagus can stop functioning effectively due to various conditions, including esophageal motility disorders like achalasia, where the muscles fail to contract properly, or esophagitis, which is inflammation that can impair its ability to transport food. Neurological disorders, such as stroke or multiple sclerosis, can also disrupt the nerve signals involved in swallowing. In some cases, structural abnormalities, tumors, or strictures can obstruct the esophagus, leading to impaired function. Additionally, chronic gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) can damage the esophageal lining, further hindering its operation.
