Understanding Achalasia Cardia: A Deep Dive into a Rare Esophageal Disorder
Listen to
Achalasia Cardia is a rare esophageal condition characterized by the lower esophageal sphincter (LES)'s failure to relax during swallowing, as well as decreased peristalsis, the regular contractions that drive food down the esophagus and into the stomach. This leads to difficulties with swallowing, regurgitation, chest pain, and, in certain instances, weight loss.
Living with Achalasia can create substantial difficulties. Simple activities, e.g., eating a meal with family or friends, can become stressful and uncomfortable due to swallowing difficulties and the risk of regurgitation. In today's episode of the Achalasia Cardia Podcast, we will discuss the causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment options for Achalasia, a rare esophageal disorder that affects swallowing and digestion.
Join the PACE Hospitals Podcast with Dr Govind Verma - Interventional Gastroenterologist, Transplant Hepatologist and Endosonologist at PACE Hospitals, Hitech City, Hyderabad, India, to dive into a condition that affects the esophagus, causing significant challenges for those diagnosed with it.
