If the esophagus stopped working, food and liquids would be unable to move from the mouth to the stomach, leading to severe swallowing difficulties (dysphagia). This could result in malnutrition, dehydration, and aspiration, where food or liquid enters the lungs, potentially causing pneumonia. The body would struggle to obtain essential nutrients, leading to weight loss and other health complications. Immediate medical intervention would be necessary to address the underlying issue and provide alternative nutrition methods.
