Acid Reflux Symptoms

The symptoms of Acid Reflux or Acid Reflux Disease are the same. The symptoms can be mild,
moderate, severe or extreme. The most common symptom is burning. The burning sensation is
heart which is why it was traditionally referred to as heartburn. In extreme cases the burning can
lead to pain which feels like it is coming from the chest that sometimes is mistaken for heart pain
or a heart attack. The burning from this Acid Reflux can last several minutes, several hours or
several days. There is usually a very sour taste that accompanies the burning. Usually the
amount of food that erupts or refluxes out of the stomach and into the lower throat area (lower
esophagus) remains in that lower area and only causes adverse effects to the lower 1-3 inches
of the esophagus above the esophageal valve.  And sometimes the Acid Reflux is strong enough
In extreme cases the entire length of the esophagus can become adversely affected by
persistent Acid Reflux and cause other adverse symptoms to emerge; like the inability to swallow
correctly, or the tendency to choke on things. This extreme form of Acid Reflux Disease is called:
Barrett’s Esophagus.
