Symptom #2: Dyspepsia
Dyspepsia is a condition that is more commonly known as indigestion. It can be caused by a wide number of things, including GERD. Symptoms include considerable discomfort in the stomach with bloating, excess burping, and a burning sensation. It is most commonly experienced after eating, particularly after eating a lot of food or spicy food.
In people that are suffering from GERD, symptoms of dyspepsia might arise even when the person has not eaten recently. Although indigestion is not usually an indication of a more serious problem like GERD, it is advisable to see a doctor if the symptoms are persistent and unpleasant.
