title: Heartburn
text: Heartburn, also known as pyrosis, cardialgia or acid indigestion, is a burning sensation in the central chest or upper central abdomen. Heartburn is usually due to regurgitation of gastric acid into the esophagus. It is the major symptom of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Other common descriptors for heartburn are belching, nausea, squeezing, stabbing, or a sensation of pressure on the chest. The pain often rises in the chest and may radiate to the neck, throat, or angle of the arm. Beca
