Hi, and thanks for your question. These signs could be compatible with an inflammation infection of the first part of the gastrointestinal system (oesophagus). regurgitation could be a sign of oesophageal pathologic enlargement. A clinical examination at your local veterinarian is immediately essential to confirm these clinical suspicions and treat appropriately. Antibiotics and possibly further investigations (like abdominal imaging as ultrasound or radiographs) may be needed.
