What is Acid Reflux?

Symptoms of acid reflux include:



  • Heartburn (a burning feeling rising from the stomach or lower chest up towards the neck).

  • Regurgitation (bringing food back up into the mouth).

  • Chest pain.

  • Difficulty in swallowing (dysphagia).

  • Hoarseness, dental erosion and asthma (because acidic juices can make their way into the throat, mouth and air passages of the lungs).
