Description: 1. Acid Reflux - Symptoms, Causes and Treatment Options 2. Acid Reflux - Acid reflux is a fairly common disease, and more than 10 million cases are reported each year in India. It is technically known as GERD or ‘gastroesophageal reflux disease’. Acid reflux results in the backing up of stomach acids and bile into the food pipe in a reverse upward direction. An abnormal functioning of the LES (lower oesophageal sphincter), which connects the food pipe with the stomach results in acid reflux disease. It causes a burning pain in the chest, and irritation in the lining of the oesophagus (food pipe). 10.
