Silent GERD: Symptoms You Should Never Ignore
Silent GERD is a form of acid reflux that happens without the classic symptom of heartburn. The full form of LPR is Laryngopharyngeal Reflux Disease. In normal GERD, acid from the stomach flows back into the oesophagus. In LPR reflux, the acid travels even higher — up to the throat, voice box (larynx), and even the nasal passage.
