Patient: Hello my name is Ruth a couple months ago I had an endoscopy done because I been having stomach pain.. Certain things I eat become painful .. My results came back normal..my biopsy came back that I have inflamed esophagus.. My pain is still there what can I do to make it feel better Doctor: Thank you user for your query.There are may causes for inflamed oesophagus mainly Candida, Herpes, GERD etc.All you have to do is to start taking any antacid to avoid acid production such as heart burn. An antibiotic or anti fungal or any antiviral can also be taken but under physician`s guidance. Try to gargle after eating anything as this reduces inflammation.While treating for oesophagitis you should follow certain stepsAvoid spicy oily, hard foods. Avoid alcohol, and acidic fruits like grapes, oranges, tomatoes. Instead try eating soft mashed food as this will help in healing of your oesophagus. Liquid diets can also be taken.God Bless
