Skin Disorders of the Esophagus Treatments

Treatment will depend on the type of skin disorder and your overall health. Treatments may include:

• Medication: Oral and topical steroids and immunosuppressive agents can offer relief from the inflammatory response.
• Pneumatic (balloon) dilation: Using an endoscope, a special balloon is passed through the mouth and into the esophagus, where it is inflated to stretch the constricted area.
