Pyrosis



Pyrosis Causes


Pyrosis results when the stomach is having slight difficulties in digesting food. It secretes acids that break the food down to smaller pieces; however it sometimes causes some pain due to its acidic effects. Women also suffer heartburn during their first three to four months of pregnancy.


Pyrosis Definition


Pyrosis is the medical term used to describe heartburn. It is a burning sensation felt in the upper part of the abdomen. It can be brought about by rapid stomach functions as well as cardio-vascular abnormalities.


Pyrosis Diagnosis


Heartburn can be diagnosed via the burning sensations the patient exhibits.


Pyrosis Symptoms and Signs


Heartburn is an indication of organ functions. People who experience heartburn feel sudden burning spells in their upper abdomen.


Pyrosis Treatment


Adequate rest completely resolves pyrosis; the feeling subsides on its own without the aid of medical care.
