Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD): GERD occurs when stomach acid frequently flows back into the food pipe (oesophagus). This backflow (acid reflux) irritates the food pipe and causes heartburn. Symptoms of GERD in children include burping/belching, stomach pain, being fussy, nausea, heartburn, and regurgitation.

Erosive esophagitis: It occurs due to the reflux of gastric contents into the stomach, which leads to mucosal injury and damages the tissue lining the oesophagus. Symptoms include loss of appetite, irritability, and chest/belly pain.

Stomach ulcers: These are the sores that develop on the stomach lining. Symptoms include abdominal pain, heartburn, nausea, and indigestion.
