Sheffield Cleaner, 20, Spent Thousands on Botox - to Cure Rare Condition Which Stopped Her Burping
Botox injections finally let Caitlin Jones burp again after six years, easing symptoms from a rare throat muscle disorder.
- Sheffield commercial cleaner Caitlin Jones regained the ability to burp after Botox treatment, marking the first time in six years she has been able to do so.
- Jones suffers from retrograde cricopharyngeal dysfunction, a rare condition causing throat pressure and gurgling noises like a "frog" that began after the 2020 lockdown.
- Following a failed 2023 procedure in London costing $1,070, Jones received 100 units of Botox injected on April 7, successfully relieving her symptoms.
- This treatment allows Jones to resume her social life without "embarrassing" situations, enabling her to no longer "hide away anymore" after years of struggle.
- While the Botox may not be permanent, Jones is hopeful the treatment will continue helping her muscles re-learn the burping process long-term.
