A guide to acid reflux

Acid reflux, also known as gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD), occurs when stomach acid flows back into the oesophagus—the tube connecting your mouth and stomach. This backward flow can irritate the lining of the oesophagus, causing discomfort. While occasional reflux is common and usually harmless, frequent episodes may lead to more significant health issues if left untreated.

Barrett’s oesophagus is a condition in which the lining of the oesophagus changes, often as a result of prolonged acid reflux or gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD). While it is not considered curable in the traditional sense, it can be effectively managed, and in some cases, treatments may reverse the abnormal tissue changes or significantly reduce associated risks.

How are gallstones removed?

Gallstones form in the gallbladder, which is the small organ below the liver. They can vary in size and composition, and while some gallstones may not cause symptoms, others can lead to pain, infection, or blockages that require removal. The method of removing gallstones depends on the severity of the condition and whether symptoms are present.

Surgical options for treating achalasia

Achalasia is a rare disorder of the oesophagus where the lower oesophageal sphincter (LOS) fails to relax properly, making it difficult for food and liquids to pass into the stomach. While non-surgical treatments such as medications and botulinum toxin injections can provide temporary relief, surgical options are often more effective for long-term management.
