A member asked:
Can inflammation of the esophagus go away with a change of diet? i do not want to be put on any medication or steroids?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It all depends on the actual cause for the inflammation, most common acid reflux. Dietary changes may help, specifically losing weight if applicable. Best would be to find out the cause for the inflammation and then go over options with your gastroenterologist, given your preferences.
