Getting evaluated early by a gastroenterology specialist can help identify the cause, prevent long-term damage, and give you peace of mind.

Not all burning sensations are caused by stomach acid. While standard acid reflux involves stomach acid backing up into the esophagus, bile reflux occurs when bile, a digestive fluid, flows upward, often due to gallbladder dysfunction.

The symptoms can feel similar, but bile reflux may not improve with typical over-the-counter antacids. If heartburn persists despite treatment, it could be something more than acid.
