Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease

Acid reflux is the major symptom of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), which causes burning or chest pain. This reflux produces chest burning, which usually occurs after eating. An assault might last anything from a few minutes to many hours. Lying down and leaning over might exacerbate discomfort. Additional symptoms of severe reflux include difficulty swallowing, a sensation that something is trapped in the throat or chest, and a sour taste at the back of the throat.
