Swallowing rehabilitation can be challenging due to factors like fatigue, pain, and emotional distress. Overcoming these challenges requires a holistic approach that includes:
1. Pain Management: Effective pain control can improve participation in therapy. 2. Nutritional Support: Working with a dietitian to ensure adequate nutrition. 3. Psychological Support: Counseling or support groups can help address emotional and psychological barriers. 4. Gradual Progression: Setting realistic goals and celebrating small milestones to keep the patient motivated.
