What is Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD)?

Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), sometimes simply called reflux, is a condition where acidic stomach contents flow back from the stomach into the food pipe (esophagus).

Occasional reflux is normal,   but if this happens often or for a long time, it can cause troublesome symptoms and injury to the esophagus.
