Best Homeopathy Doctors for GERD in Hyderabad | Online Consultation Available Worldwide.


Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) is a chronic digestive disorder in which stomach acid repeatedly flows back into the esophagus (food pipe). This acid reflux irritates the lining of the esophagus, causing heartburn, chest discomfort, sour taste, and other digestive symptoms. Frequent or untreated GERD can lead to inflammation, ulcers, narrowing of the esophagus, or Barrett's esophagus, which increases the risk of esophageal cancer.
