1 Common symptoms include heartburn and painful swallowing.  If undiagnosed or untreated, esophagitis can cause problems with swallowing, ulcers, scarring of the esophagus, or Barrett's esophagus, which can be a precursor to esophageal cancer.
Esophagus symptoms include pain or a burning feeling in the throat or chest, and belching. They commonly result from overeating, drinking alcohol while eating, or consuming greasy or spicy foods. Esophagus symptoms can also result from inflammation, infection, or dysfunction in the stomach or esophagus itself.
