"Heartburn refers to a burning feeling that can be caused by stomach acid regurgitating into the esophagus from the stomach, or by gastritis, which is an inflammation of the lining of the stomach. The most common cause of heartburn is gastro esophageal reflux disease (GERD). Another is hiatal hernia, in which a small portion of the stomach protrudes through the sphincter between the esophagus and the stomach. Digestive Disorders: heartburn (gas, GERD) The symptoms of heartburn and gastritis may include painful or burning sensations in the upper abdomen, bloating, belching, diffuse abdominal pain, passing gas, nausea, and occasionally vomiting. The appearance of these symptoms is often associated with eating."
