๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ (๐๐๐ฌ๐ญ๐ซ๐จ๐๐ฌ๐จ๐ฉ๐ก๐๐ ๐๐๐ฅ ๐๐๐๐ฅ๐ฎ๐ฑ)) Heartburn is a burning, often painful, sensation in the chest (behind the breastbone) or throat. Heartburn is caused by gastroesophageal reflux (GER), when the acidic chyme in the stomach escapes back into the esophagus and even into the mouth. Normally, this reflux is prevented by the lower esophageal sphincter (a tight ring of muscle) that sits between the esophagus and stomach. The muscles of the sphincter contract to keep it closed, only relaxing to allow food boluses and liquid to pass from the esophagus into the stomach and then quickly contracting again to keep the contents of the stomach separate from the esophagus. The lower esophageal sphincter can be weakened because of increased pressure on the abdomen from obesity or pregnancy, exposure to to***co smoke, and some medications, so the risk of GER is increased in these scenarios.
Occasional heartburn is a common complaint, especially after eating large greasy or spicy meals. However, if it occurs more than twice per week, it may be diagnosed as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), which should be treated not only to relieve the discomfort that it causes but also to prevent damage to the tissues of the esophagus, which can increase the risk of cancer. In addition to heartburn, GER and GERD can cause difficult and painful swallowing, a persistent sore throat or cough, a sense that thereโs a lump in your throat, and nausea and vomiting.
itโs wise to see a doctor to be checked out for GERD and to discuss other treatment and medication options.
