Heartburn, also known as pyrosis, gerd and gastroesophageal reflux disease, is a burning or sensation of pain in a person’s esophagus caused by the regurgitation of gastric acid. Since the esophagus is located just below the breastbone, many people mistake heartburn from a heart attack. However, when heartburn occurs, the pain rises in the chest and then radiates to the throat, neck or jaw. Contrary to popular belief, this health condition has nothing to do with the heart.
