Gastroesophageal Reflux Disorder (GERD)
Home » Gastroesophageal Reflux Disorder (GERD)
What is GERD?
GERD occurs when stomach acid frequently flows back (refluxes) into the esophagus, the tube that connects your mouth and stomach. This backflow irritates the esophageal lining and leads to chronic symptoms and, over time, may cause complications.
Common Symptoms
GERD is common in:
Infants and children, due to immature digestive systems
Adults, especially those who are overweight, pregnant, or have a hiatal hernia
Symptoms of GERD
In adults:
Heartburn (burning in chest)
Acid regurgitation
Chest pain
Difficulty swallowing
Chronic cough or sore throat
In infants and children:
Spitting up or vomiting
Irritability during feeding
Poor weight gain
Chronic cough or wheezing
Arching of the back during feeds
Persistent GERD can lead to esophagitis, narrowing of the esophagus, or even Barrett’s esophagus in severe cases.
Diagnosis and Treatment in Ghaziabad
Diagnosis may involve:
Upper GI endoscopy
pH monitoring
Esophageal manometry
Barium swallow X-ray
Treatment Options:
