We provide specialized care for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), offering advanced diagnostics and personalized treatment plans to manage acid reflux and prevent complications.
Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) is a chronic digestive disorder where stomach acid repeatedly flows back into the esophagus, irritating the lining. It is a long-term condition that, if left untreated, can lead to complications like esophageal ulcers and even cancer.
Stomach acid moving back into the esophagus causes heartburn and discomfort.
Obesity, smoking, pregnancy, poor diet, and certain medications.
Common symptoms include persistent heartburn, chest pain, sour taste in the mouth, and difficulty swallowing. Causes may include obesity, smoking, poor diet, or a weakened lower esophageal sphincter.
Treatment includes lifestyle changes, dietary modifications, medications, and in severe cases, surgical intervention to strengthen the esophagus.
