People with GERD-associated difficulty in swallowing feel like a piece of food has become stuck somewhere near their breastbone. This causes difficulty in food to pass through and leads to dysphagia. As the ulcers heal they may lead to narrowing of the esophagus and scarring. This esophagitis may progress to open ulcers and sores. This happens when long term acid exposure leads to irritation and inflammation of the inner linings of the esophagus causing esophagitis. Swallowing problemsĪround a third of individuals with GERD may suffer from swallowing problems or dysphagia. This causes a sour or bitter taste at the back of the mouth or throat. This leads to reflux of the acid from the stomach into the back of the mouth. This back pressure yields the sphincter and causes reflux of the acid. This causes back pressure over the lower esophageal sphincter that guards the entry of the stomach. The pain worsens after eating or when bending over or lying down. The pain is caused due to irritation of the inner lining of the esophagus by the acid that has seeped back. Heartburn refers to a feeling of discomfort or burning pain that occurs beneath the breast bone. The most frequent symptoms are heart burn and discomfort in the chest.Īlthough symptoms of the condition are varied they may be characterized by three cardinal features – heart burn, acid reflux or regurgitation in the mouth and difficulty swallowing. Gastro-Esophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) is one of the most common digestive disorders.
