Symptoms of Eosinophilic Esophagitis

Symptoms of eosinophilic esophagitis can vary depending on the severity of the inflammation. Symptoms include:

• Dysphagia (difficulty swallowing)
• Chest or upper abdominal pain
• Food stuck in the esophagus
• Heartburn that doesn’t respond to medication
• Regurgitation (the return of partially digested food from the stomach to the mouth)
• In children, vomiting, poor weight gain or failure to thrive

If food becomes impacted (stuck) in your esophagus, please contact your physician immediately.
