Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) Treatment in Egypt
What is GERD?
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a chronic digestive disorder where stomach acid or bile flows back into the esophagus, causing irritation. Over time, untreated GERD can lead to complications such as esophageal inflammation, ulcers, or even cancer. It is a common condition that affects people of all ages.
Symptoms of GERD:
- Persistent heartburn or acid reflux
- Regurgitation of food or sour liquid
- Difficulty swallowing (dysphagia)
- Chest pain, especially after eating
- A sensation of a lump in the throat
- Chronic cough or sore throat
