Esophagus allergy is an allergic inflammatory reaction of the esophagus, the muscular tube that carries food from the throat to the stomach. To distinguish between GERD and EE, a biopsy of the esophagus and GERD studies are preformed. In EE, high levels of eosinophils are detected in the esophagus only, and not other parts of the digestive tract.
The treatment team usually consists of your primary doctor and pediatric specialty physicians in Allergy and Gastroenterology who are familiar with this disorder. A nutritionist may be needed to help manage dietary concerns.
