Heartburn itself is not directly life-threatening, but it can be a symptom of more serious conditions, such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) or heart problems. If heartburn is severe or accompanied by other symptoms like chest pain, shortness of breath, or sweating, it may indicate a medical emergency that requires immediate attention. Chronic heartburn can lead to complications if left untreated, but it does not usually cause death on its own. Always consult a healthcare professional for persistent or severe symptoms.
