A member asked:

Lungs burning in the mornings when i first wake up. difficulty swallowing. i smoke but cutting down. what can this be? reflux? natural treatment?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Lung pain: Lung pain is often associated with irritation in a young person. Reflux can be a cause as well as toxic exposure depending on what is smoked and environmental exposures. See you doctor for a work-up.
