You may experience some difficulty or pain when swallowing food because of the fragile state of the esophagus. Moving foods from the mouth to the stomach may also become challenging and digestion can take longer than normal.
Esophagitis can damage the lining of the esophagus and interfere with its normal function, which is to move food and liquid from your mouth to your stomach. Esophagitis can also lead to complications such as scarring or narrowing of the esophagus, and difficulty swallowing.
