GERD
What is GERD
GERD occurs when stomach acid flows back and forth through the esophagus. This acid reflux or backflow can irritate the lining of the esophagus.
Occasionally, many people suffer from acid reflux. But having frequent acid reflux could lead to GERD if it goes on for a long time.
What Are The Symptoms Of GERD?
The most frequently occurring sign and symptoms of GERD
include:
- A burning feeling in the chest usually happens after ingesting and might get worse when lying down or at night.
- Backwash or regurgitation of sour liquid or food.
- Upper abdominal pain
- difficulty swallowing
- Chest pain
- Feels like a lump in the throat
If you experience nighttime acid reflux, you may also:
- A persistent cough
- Voice cord inflammation (laryngitis)
- New or severe Asthma
What Causes GERD ?
The term “gastroesophageal” means digestive tract and Reflux is referred to return or flow backward. Gastroesophageal reflux occurs when stomach contents rise back up into the esophagus.
Normal digestion involves the opening of the LES to allow the food to enter the stomach. The valve then closes down preventing the entry of stomach acid and food from flowing “backward” into the “esophagus”. “Gastroesophageal reflux” occurs due to the relaxation of the esophageal sphincter or weakness. This allows the stomach foot to enter the esophagus.
How Is GERD Diagnosed?
