GERD
Gastroesophageal Reflux
A chronic digestive condition where stomach acid frequently flows back into the esophagus, irritating its lining.
GERD occurs when the lower esophageal sphincter is weakened or relaxed, allowing acid reflux. Symptoms include heartburn, regurgitation, and sometimes dysphagia. Proton pump inhibitors are the most effective medical therapy; lifestyle changes are essential adjuncts.
