Dr. Shen Yonghua
Gastric cardia inflammation is an inflammatory condition involving the gastric cardia region, with the following main symptoms:
1. Burning sensation or chest pain: Gastric cardia inflammation often causes a burning sensation or pain in the chest, typically worsening after eating or when lying flat. This discomfort may be accompanied by upper abdominal pain or discomfort.
2. Difficulty swallowing: Inflammation may cause swelling or narrowing of the gastric cardia region, leading to difficulty swallowing. Patients may experience a sensation of food getting stuck in the throat or chest during eating.
3. Acid regurgitation or vomiting: Frequent acid regurgitation or vomiting may occur due to gastroesophageal reflux. Patients may feel acidic fluid moving up from the stomach into the esophagus, causing discomfort in the throat area.
If symptoms of gastric cardia inflammation occur, it is recommended to seek timely medical evaluation and diagnosis to obtain appropriate treatment and relief measures. With professional guidance, the condition can be effectively managed to improve quality of life.
