Many people with acid reflux experience a burning sensation in their chest after eating, known as heartburn. This is caused by stomach acid coming back up the esophagus.
Acid reflux can cause difficulty swallowing, known as dysphagia. You may feel like food is sticking in your throat or chest when you try to swallow.
Acid reflux can cause regurgitation, which is when food or stomach acid comes back up into your throat or mouth. This can leave a sour or bitter taste in your mouth.
