Reflux and Hoarseness

Sometimes, reflux ("heartburn") is the cause of hoarseness: this disorder is treated with medication to reduce the stomach's acid production and dietary changes. Careful examination of the esophagus may be warranted in some individuals: today, this can be performed in an endoscopy suite with sedation, but is increasing performed as an office procedure by ENT physicians.
