What is GERD & Acidity?
GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease) is a digestive condition in which stomach acid or contents frequently flow back into the food pipe, causing irritation and discomfort. Acidity commonly refers to symptoms such as heartburn, acid reflux, and a burning sensation in the chest or upper abdomen.
GERD and acidity may be associated with symptoms including heartburn, sour or bitter taste in the mouth, regurgitation, bloating, and discomfort after meals. Persistent symptoms may require medical evaluation to identify the underlying cause and determine appropriate treatment.
At KK Swara Super Speciality Hospital in Boduppal, patients can receive comprehensive evaluation and personalized treatment for GERD and acidity, along with guidance on diet, lifestyle, medications, and follow-up care when required.
