Underlying Conditions Linked to Heartburn
About 15 million Americans experience heartburn every day. While over-the-counter medicines may bring short-term relief, they aren’t a long-term solution and can mask more serious digestive problems.
At the Heartburn Center at Broward Health Coral Springs, our experts diagnose and treat many conditions related to acid reflux and chronic heartburn, including:
- Barrett's esophagus
- Chest pain
- Chronic cough
- Dental erosion
- Esophageal cancer
- Esophagitis
- Hoarseness
- Regurgitation
- Sore throat
Diagnosing Heartburn
If heartburn keeps coming back, it may be more than just discomfort. Ongoing acid reflux can damage the esophagus, so finding the cause is important.
At the Heartburn Center at Broward Health Coral Springs, we use advanced tests to get clear answers about your symptoms. These may include:
- Acid monitoring to measure how much stomach acid is moving into your esophagus
- Esophageal function tests to see how well your muscles move food to your stomach
- Endoscopy and imaging to check for inflammation, blockages, or early signs of disease
With the right diagnosis, our specialists can create a treatment plan tailored to you.
Treatment Options for Heartburn
At Broward Health, we start with the least invasive therapies, such as lifestyle changes and medication. If those no longer bring relief, our surgical team offers some of the most advanced procedures available in South Florida. Many of these are outpatient, meaning you can go home the same day and recover faster.
Surgical and minimally invasive options may include:
- Magnetic sphincter augmentation – Strengthens the muscle that keeps acid out of the esophagus
- Hiatal hernia repair – Fixes a hernia where the stomach pushes into the chest
- Fundoplication (Nissen or partial) – Wraps the top of the stomach around the esophagus to prevent reflux
- Transoral incisionless fundoplication (TIF) – A no-incision procedure done through the mouth
