Diseases of the Esophagus: The esophagus is a tube that carries the food we swallow from our mouth to our stomach. The following are a few of the diseases that can involve it.

The reflux of acid from the stomach up into the esophagus irritates the lining and causes us to experience heartburn, chest pain or other symptoms. Prolonged exposure to acid can lead to ulcerations of the mucosa.
