¿Qué es el reflujo?
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a condition in which stomach acid flows back into the esophagus, causing discomfort such as heartburn, acid reflux, regurgitation, and, in some cases, difficulty swallowing or throat irritation. When these symptoms are frequent or affect your quality of life, it is important to seek medical evaluation to determine the most appropriate treatment.

Tratamiento y seguimiento
In general, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) can be managed with medication. However, if medication is ineffective or if you wish to avoid long-term medication use, your doctor may recommend a fundoplication. This is a minimally invasive procedure in which the surgeon wraps the upper part of the stomach around the lower esophageal sphincter to tighten the muscle and prevent reflux.
