Dr. Zhao Haiming
Reflux esophagitis generally takes about 6 to 8 weeks to cure. However, this is not fixed and depends on the severity of the patient's condition. If the patient undergoes minimally invasive surgery, hospitalization usually lasts 3 to 5 days, after which the patient can recover quickly. If treated with medication, it typically takes about 6 to 8 weeks for recovery.
