About Achalasia

What is Achalasia?

Achalasia is a rare condition that affects the oesophagus, making it difficult to swallow as the muscles fail to relax properly. This prevents food and liquids from moving easily into the stomach, leading to symptoms such as chest pain, regurgitation, and persistent swallowing difficulties. While the exact cause of achalasia is unknown, it is often linked to the loss of nerve cells in the oesophagus.
