What’s going on? It’s been over a year since I burned my esophagus from eating and I’m still not feeling well.

Generally speaking, eating food burns esophagus more than a year still uncomfortable, may be chronic inflammation, scar repair and other reasons. 1. Chronic inflammation: for people who are still uncomfortable after a year of eating and burning the esophagus, it may be due to the fact that the esophageal tissues are damaged and not treated in time after the scald, and then chronic inflammation will develop, which will cause long-lasting discomfort in the esophagus. If chronic inflammation persists, it may become cancerous. 2. Scar healing: If the damaged esophageal tissue is damaged after scald, scar healing will cause discomfort in the esophagus, such as difficulty in swallowing and discomfort behind the sternum. It is recommended that people with the symptoms mentioned above should not eat too hot food in their daily life and take a light diet. If the symptoms are not relieved, early medical consultation and treatment are recommended.
