Heartburn, also called acid reflux, is a burning feeling in the chest caused by stomach acid travelling up the throat.
Gastro-oesophageal Reflux Disease (GORD) is when the stomach acid repeatedly travels up the throat. Heartburn can cause a burning sensation in the middle of the chest. You might get hiccups and flatulence, an unpleasant sour taste in your mouth caused by stomach acid, bloating and nausea. Symptoms can be relieved with remedies.
