Where is the lower esophagus located?

The lower esophagus is a muscular tube that connects the esophagus to the stomach. It is located at the junction of the chest and abdomen. The esophagus connects the mouth and stomach and plays a role in transporting food from the mouth to the stomach. The

esophagus is a muscular tube that extends from the mouth to the stomach. The specific location of the lower esophagus is about 2.5 cm below the sternum. It mainly keeps the stomach contents from flowing back into the esophagus and performs normal gastrointestinal motility. When gastrointestinal motility pushes food into the stomach, it prevents the stomach contents from flowing back into the esophagus and transfers food to the duodenum through contraction, thus ensuring the normal operation of the digestive system.
