Esophagitis and reflux esophagitis are somewhat different. Esophagitis is a larger spectrum that includes reflux esophagitis, fungal esophagitis or bacterial esophagitis, drug esophagitis, chemical esophagitis, etc. It is only in clinical practice that reflux esophagitis is more common, that is, when the anti-reflux defense mechanism of the esophagus is weakened, resulting in the reflux of duodenal and gastric contents into the esophagus, causing symptoms such as acid reflux and heartburn. The simple understanding of esophagitis is that it has a wide scope, but reflux esophagitis only refers to esophagitis caused by reflux. In the case of esophagitis, the main treatment is the use of acid suppressants combined with drugs that promote mucosal repair. In the case of reflux esophagitis, additional gastrointestinal stimulants are needed, for which you can consult a specialist.
