Acid Reflux and Bile Reflux are two kinds of reflux disorder that happen as the disorder of our digestive system. If you have anomalous food habits that compel you to consume foods in an untimely manner or the food you consume is not the right food for you, you are in a high chance of getting Acid Reflux and in many cases Bile Reflux as well.
Acid Reflux could lead to GERD
When hyperacidity occurs for a substantial period of time, the acidic stomach content starts impacting the gastroesophageal sphincter and as a result, it gets loose leaving a small gap between the stomach and the oesophagus. In a further development of hyperacidity, the acidic stomach content starts flowing upwards through that gap into the oesophagus, the food pipe that connects the stomach with our mouth.
You can immediately start feeling a burning sensation in your chest area. In the worst cases, the stomach content may reach up to your throat area resulting in regurgitation of sour or bitter stomach content in your mouth along with burping. It will accompany a severe sense of burning called heartburn. This development of hyperacidity and Acid Reflux is called Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease or GERD.
