Doctors in Achalasia
Achalasia
Achalasia is a condition that affects the flow of food through the digestive system. It is characterized by a lack of peristalsis, which is the muscle contractions that help move food through the intestines. This condition can cause food to remain in the stomach for a longer period of time than normal, leading to symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and difficulty swallowing. Treatment typically involves medication to stimulate peristalsis and help food move through the digestive system. In some cases, surgery may be necessary to treat the condition. If you suspect you may have Achalasia, it is important to speak with a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis and treatment.
