Lɛ wi lan bɔt di men kayn ɛsophagitis.

Dis kכndyushכn kin sheb to sεvεra men tכp dεm dipכnt pan di kכz. Lɛ wi si wetin dɛn bi.

1. Riflɔks Ɛsophagitis we di bɛlɛ asid kin mek

Dis na di kayn we we dɛn kin yuz mɔ . Wi bɛlɛ gɛt wan asid we rili strɔng we de ɛp fɔ digest it. nכmal wan, wan mכsul ring (sphincter) bitwin di bכdi εn di εsophagus de stכp dis asid fכ kam כp. I tan lɛk domɔt. Bɔt we dis domɔt nɔ lɔk fayn, di asid we de na di bɛlɛ kin kam ɔp ɛn nak di εsophagus. di εsophagus nכ kin ebul fכ bia dis strכng asid. So, if dis kɔntinyu, di εsophagus kin wund ɛn inflam. Wi kin kɔl dis bak GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease) . Dis sik kin apin bak pan pipul dɛm wae kin vɔmit ɔltɛm.

2. Drug-induced Esophagitis we kin kam wit mɛrɛsin

Sɔntɛnde dɛn kin kɔl dis "Pill Esophagitis." Sɔm pan di mɛrɛsin dɛn we wi kin tek, mɔ if wi nɔ drink bɛtɛ wata, kin stɔp na di εsophagus ɛn bigin fɔ sɔlv. Dɔn di kemikal dɛn we de insay di pils kin pwɛl ɛn wund di layn na di εsophagus.

Tin dɛm lɛk pen kil (NSAID), sɔm antibayɔtik, ɛn mɛrɛsin fɔ mek di bon dɛn strɔng (Bisphosphonates) kin mek dis apin.

3. Infεkshכn Esophagitis we infεkshכn kin kכz

Dis kin rili rare pan pɔrsin wae gɛt wɛl bɔdi. Bɔt pipul dɛm wae gɛt wik imyun sistɛm kin gɛt infekshɔn lɛk dis. Fɔ ɛgzampul:

• Pipul dɛn we gɛt HIV/AIDS
• Pipul dɛn we gɛt dayabitis
• Pipul dɛn we de du tritmɛnt fɔ kansa (Kɛmotɛrapi) .
• Pipul dεm we de tek imyun supεshכn mεdikeshכn afta dεn transplant כgan

dis pipul dεm kin gεt fכn infεkshכn (e.g., Candida albicans) εn vayral infεkshכn (e.g., hεpi) na di εsophagus.

4. Eosinophilic Esophagitis we pɔsin kin gɛt we i gɛt alɛji

Dis na smɔl kɔmplikɛt kɔndishɔn. Wetin kin apin ya na dat di bɔdi in imyun sistɛm kin wok pasmak, ɛn bɔku bɔku wayt blɔd sɛl dɛn we dɛn kɔl eosinophils kin gɛda na di εsophagus. we dεn sεl dεm ya de kכmכt, krεse inflameshn de apin de. Dɛn kin si dis mɔ pan pipul dɛm wae gɛt alɛji to difrɛn it ɔr tin dɛm wae de na di envayrɔmɛnt.

5. Bikɔs ɔf ɔda ɔtoimyun sik dɛn

sכmtεm, εsophagitis kin kכz bak bay כtoimyun sik dεm, we di bכdi in כwn imyun sistεm de atak in yon sεl dεm. fכ egzampl, dis kכndyushכn kin apin mכr pan pipul dεm we gεt sik lεk Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD).

6. Bikɔs ɔf redyushɔn tɛrapi

We dɛn de du redyushɔn tɛrapi fɔ kansa na say dɛn lɛk di chɛst ɛn trot, di ifɛkt dɛn we di raytin kin du kin mek di ɛsophagus inflamɛns. Dis kin bi fɔ sɔm tɛm, bɔt pan sɔm pipul dɛn i kin te fɔ lɔng tɛm.

Yu tink se Esophagitis kin siriɔs?

Yɛs. If dɛn nɔ trit am fayn, dis kin mek i gɛt siriɔs prɔblɛm dɛn. So, if yu gɛt dɛn sik ya, i bɛtɛ fɔ lɛ yu nɔ pe atɛnshɔn to dɛn.

• Ɔlsa: If di inflamɛns kɔntinyu, sɔri, we dɛn kɔl ɔlsa, kin fɔm insay di it paip. Dɛn tin ya kin blɔd. na sכm tεm, dεn כlsa dεm ya kin go dip εn mek ol na di it paip (gastrointestinal perforation). If dis apin, di infekshɔn kin go na di chɛst ɔ di blɔd ɛn i kin mek pɔsin in layf de pan denja.
• εsophageal stricture: Ska tisu de fכm insay di εsophagus bikoz fכ di inflameshn we de fכ lכng tεm. Dis skata de mek di εsophagus smɔl smɔl. Dis kin mek i nɔ izi fɔ swɛla it. Dis kin mek yu nɔ gɛt wata na yu bɔdi, yu nɔ go gɛt bɔku bɔku bɔdi, ɛn yu nɔ go it bɛtɛ tin fɔ it.
• Barrett in esophagus: Dis na di kɔmplikeshɔn we denja pas ɔl. biכs fכ kכntinyu fכ de pan asid, di sεl dεm na di lכw pat pan di εsophagus de bigin fכ chenj. dat min se di sεl dεm de bigin fכ lεk di sεl dεm we de na di intestinal. Dis na wan sik we kin apin bifo pɔsin gɛt kansa.Dis min se pipul dɛm wae gɛt dis sik kin gɛt bɔrku risk fɔ gɛt kansa na dɛn εsophageal tumara bambay.

Aw dɔktɔ kin fɛn dis?

We yu go to dɔktɔ, i go aks yu fɔs bɔt di sayn dɛn we yu gɛt. Bɔku tɛm, yu kin gɛs if yu gɛt ɛsophagitis frɔm di ditil dɛm we yu gi.

• Bɔku tɛm, di dɔktɔ go fɔs gi yu wan mɛrɛsin we de ridyus di asid na di bɛlɛ ɛn si if dat de ridyus di sayn dɛn. If di simptom dεm dכn dכn, dεn kin kכnfכm se na rεfluks εsophagitis.
• If di sik nɔr bɛtɛ wit mɛrɛsin, dɛn nid fɔ du mɔ tɛst. di men tεst fכ dis na כp εndoskopi . Na ya, dɛn kin put wan tint tiub we kin chenj ɛn we gɛt kamɛra tru di mɔt ɛn chɛk di εsophagus, di bɛlɛ, ɛn di fɔs pat pan di smɔl intestinal. Dis kin mek yu ebul fɔ luk insay klia wan, lɛk inflamɛns ɛn ɔlsa. if nid de, dεn kin tek wan pat pan di tisu fכ tεst (`(Biopsy)`).
• sכmtεm dεn kin rεkomεnd bak fכ du εsophageal pH tεst, we de mכsu di כmכnt כf asid na di εsophagus.

Di tritmɛnt ɛn di we aw dɛn de liv dɛn layf

Di tritmɛnt dipen pan di tin we kin mek pɔsin gɛt ɛsophagitis ɛn bɔku tɛm i kin gɛt fɔ du wit wan kɔmbayn mɛrɛsin ɛn chenj dɛn layf.

Aw lɔng i kin tek fɔ mek i wɛl?

Dis kin dipen pan de tin wae de mek yu fil ɛn aw yu de du tritmɛnt. Wae yu stat de rayt tritmɛnt, de hiling prɔses go bigin kwik kwik wan. I kin tek lɛk 3-6 wiks fɔ mek i wɛl ful wan. Bɔt if de sik nɔr de dɔn, lɛk GERD, yu go nid fɔ tek mɛrɛsin ɛn mek chenj na yu layf fɔ lɔng tɛm.
