Esophageal bleeding may be related to diet, gastroesophageal reflux, esophageal cancer and other factors.
1. When
eating too hard food, when the food passes through the esophageal mucosa, it will cause damage to the mucosal tissue, which is easy to cause bleeding.
2. Gastroesophageal
reflux. When gastric acid continuously flows back to the esophagus, throat and other parts, it may burn the esophageal mucosa in the process, causing erosion, ulcer, etc., which is easy to cause local bleeding.
3. Esophageal cancer
When suffering from esophageal cancer, with the increasing volume of cancer, the esophageal mucosa will be infiltrated and damaged. Patients are more prone to esophageal bleeding.
