GERD is not an ultimate diagnosis. It is just a symptom which needs to be worked up.
The risk of cancer depends on the underlying disease.

The persistent acid reflux associated with GERD can lead to complications, such as:
1. Esophagitis: Inflammation of the esophagus due to repeated exposure to stomach acid.
2. Strictures: Narrowing of the esophagus caused by scar tissue from chronic inflammation.
3. Barrett’s Esophagus: A condition where the normal squamous cells lining the esophagus are replaced by columnar cells (intestinal metaplasia). This is considered a precancerous condition.
Barret’s oesophagus significantly increases the risk of developing esophageal adenocarcinoma, a type of esophageal cancer. Not all individuals with Barrett’s Esophagus will develop cancer, but the risk is higher compared to the general population.
