Eosinophilic esophagitis is an allergic inflammatory disorder of the esophagus and occurs when eosinophils, which are white blood cells that manifest during allergic reactions, cause inflammation and scarring along the lining of the esophagus, sometimes making it difficult to swallow.
Symptoms include:
Vomiting/nausea
Abdominal pain
Acid reflux
Difficulty swallowing
Failure to thrive/growth issues
Feeling that food gets stuck in the throat
If we suspect your child may have an eosinophilic disorder, our team will perform an evaluation to obtain a definitive diagnosis. From there, our specialists will work to find the right treatment plan for your child.
