The esophagus is part of our digestive system. It is a narrow, muscular tube about 10 inches long in adults, that moves food and drink downward into the stomach by making coordinated contractions.
GERD – Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease
Normally, a type of sphincter muscle keeps the upper part of the stomach closed, but various factors may loosen it, allowing acid to rise more easily.
In GERD, acid from the stomach splashes upward, or “refluxes,” and burns the oesophagus – the tube connecting the mouth to the stomach, which result is pain or heartburn in the chest.
This condition In infants, is the major issue which is spitting up of food or milk rather than pain.
Possible CAUSES: Some common causes include:
- Stomach acids backing up into the oesophagus
- Infection
- Side effects of certain medicines
- Obesity
- Pregnancy – due to changes in muscle tone.
- Fatty or large meals intake
- Eating immediately before going to bed.
- Ascites (accumulation of fluid in the stomach)
