I have an inflamed esphagus, What can I do for it?
It depends upon what is causing the irritation. Can you tell us more?
I Dont know what is causing it. I had a test because I thought I had a sore throat that wouldn't heal. The doctor recommended prilosec. It really is not helping.
Prilosec is commonly used to treat GERD, gastric reflux disease. This is where the acids in your stomach "back up" and irritate the esophagus. If you have GERD, Prilosec should help it heal.
What tests did your doctor do? What other symptoms do you have besides a sore throat?
