GERD is an abbreviation that stands for the term "gastroesophageal reflux disease", which is a common digestive disorder affecting more and more adults and children. The disease can be described as a mucosal damage of the esophagus caused by the acidic stomach juices entering the lower sections of the esophagus or gullet.
This phenomenon is often called acid reflux as well, since in fact it is an intensive reverse flow (hence the name reflux) of the stomach contents into the esophagus, which occurs when the closing muscles separating the esophagus and the stomach get relaxed at an inappropriate time.
The most common symptoms of GERD include permanent heartburn (chronic chest pain behind the breastbone), discomfort felt in the abdomen, burning sensation in the throat and difficulty in swallowing. However, these symptoms may vary from one person to the other, and sometimes it is difficult for the doctors to diagnose the exact problem, especially in case of infants or children. Acid reflux or GERD in children may cause vomiting (even 4-5 times a day) coughing, ear ache or other problems that are not commonly associated with GERD. It is very important to start curing GERD at an early stage of the disease, because it can have complications as severe as Barrett's esophagus or even esophageal cancer.
