Normal gastroesophageal reflux?

summary

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a dynamic disease of esophagus and stomach. Gastroesophageal reflux (GER) is the reflux of gastric contents during the relaxation of lower esophageal dilator (LES). There are two kinds of gastroesophageal reflux: physiological reflux and pathological reflux. Physiological reflux is caused by spontaneous relaxation of LES, which is conducive to gas discharge from the stomach. There will be push peristalsis in the esophagus, which will push the gastric juice into the stomach. Under normal circumstances, it will not cause esophageal membrane damage. Normal gastroesophageal reflux? Next, I'd like to share my views with you.

First: pantothenic acid, burping, regurgitation of acid and bitter gastric juice in light food, or upward reflux when bending down. In heavy acid regurgitation, acid irritants can jet back to the throat at night, causing cough, asthma or asphyxia. It can also cause excessive saliva secretion due to esophageal acid reflux reflex. Regurgitation is commonly seen in the more severe, the food has a strong sour taste.

It often appears 30 minutes after a meal, especially after a full meal. It is aggravated when the body is bent forward or forced to hold breath. The stimulation of reflux can cause esophageal spasmodic pain. When the pressure of upper esophageal sphincter was increased by reflux acid stimulation, there was a sense of winning.

Third: in the case of esophagitis, especially the erosion of the esophageal membrane, there is often swallowing chest pain. Some chest pain is similar to angina pectoris, pain to shoulder back, upper limbs, neck or ear radiation. Some patients with respiratory symptoms, sore throat, hoarseness, dysphonia and oropharyngeal symptoms: excessive salivation, tooth damage, periodontal disease, otitis media, etc. Reflux symptoms may not be obvious.
