Acid reflux is when stomach acid goes back into the food pipe or esophagus.
Acid is produced by the parietal cells of the stomach and it makes the pH of stomach acidic I.e 1.5-2.
This so acidic pH is meant to easily breakdown the food in stomach and Mucous membrane of stomach is strong enough to protect stomach wall from corrosive effects of this acid.
Esophagus is called food pipe as it works as a transport pipe when food is shifted from mouth to the stomach and its wall is not lined by a strong enough membran which can save it from damaging effects of acid.
In some people due to some existing risk factors and lifestyle habits the valve which tries to stop this acid from going back to esophagus from stomach becomes weak and this is when this acid may damage esophagus and cause injury there.
