Pyrosis, commonly known as heartburn, is a burning sensation in the chest or throat caused by the reflux of stomach acid into the esophagus. It often occurs after eating, particularly with spicy or fatty foods, and can be exacerbated by lying down or bending over. While occasional heartburn is common, frequent occurrences may indicate gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), which may require medical evaluation and treatment.
