Medical Conditions - Gastroesophageal Reflux

Gastroesophageal reflux disease is brought on by persistent stomach acid reflux into the tube connecting the mouth and stomach (the esophagus). This backwash may irritate the lining of your esophagus. The problem of periodic acid reflux is prevalent. One of the symptoms, which usually appears after eating and is worse when people lie down, is a burning sensation in the chest. Antacids and self-care are considered treatments.
