Heartburn is
certainly a health problem that is annoying. Basically, here’s what happens in
heartburn. The esophagus is a tube that goes from the mouth down into the
stomach. When acid escapes from the stomach, it goes into the esophagus. The
esophagus lining is not meant for acid. It can’t buffer it the way the stomach
can. As a result, a person feels the pain, and with that pain of the heartburn
comes an irritation. That gastric irritation can be extremely painful at night.
