The outward signs that a person suffering from acid reflux disorder may vary from simple discomforts such as mild heartburn, dry cough, and other seemingly common health issues to serious damage of the affected organs that could lead to serious to fatal illnesses.
Like for instance, the most popularly known symptom that is heartburn may not necessarily be experienced by the acid reflux disorder patient.
But this condition does not only concern adults but people of every age as well, even infants.
When coming across regular possible symptoms of acid reflux disorder such as acid indigestion more popularly known as heartburn; difficulty or pain in swallowing; signs of respiratory infection such as asthma, and pneumonia; and nausea and vomiting, it is important to immediately consult with a doctor.
It is always a good thing to be considering means of avoidance and prevention rather than face greater risks and consequences due to inaction to acid reflux disorder.
The disease is chronic and may occur from time to time even after a successful treatment, so utter vigilance and careful health measures are to be considered.
When left untreated, the many times when the acid has regurgitated may result to damage to the esophageal lining that causes it to bleed - ulcers and thus indicate esophagus.
Though this is a good thing, it would also pose other problems like strictures or the narrowing of the food passage.
This deformity exposes the sufferer to greater risk in acquiring esophageal cancer.
