Acid reflux: Normally, stomach acids remain in the stomach where the lining is well protected from damage by cels that produce mucin. The esophagus has less protection than the stomach and if acids leave the stomach frequently, the esophagus can be damaged. Acid exposure to damagesd tissues can cause pain (heart burn). Even though this sounds like reflux, a docctor's evaluation is suggested to confirm this.
