People with esophagitis usually experience chest and back pain, but usually not itching. Reflux esophagitis may cause a tickling sensation in the throat due to acid reflux. Esophagitis refers to inflammatory lesions such as congestion and edema that occur after the mucosa of the esophagus has been irritated or damaged by various causes, and includes many types, the most common being reflux esophagitis. Patients usually exhibit symptoms such as acid reflux, heartburn (burning sensation behind the sternum), painful swallowing, dysphagia, and chest pain. Therefore, patients with esophagitis usually experience chest pain and back pain, but usually do not feel itchy. Some patients with reflux esophagitis may have an itchy sensation in the pharynx or throat due to the reflux of substances such as stomach acid or bile into the esophagus or even the throat, but it is not a typical symptom of esophagitis. Patients with esophagitis are advised to seek prompt medical attention and professional treatment under the guidance of a doctor to avoid delays.
