They are one and the same…GERD is simply short for Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease…or acid reflux.
Have a blessed evening
They are the same and they both hurt alot.
GERD IS THE NICK name (both are same thing)
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is the same as acid reflux. This term more accurately describes the cause of heartburn, which is the reflux of acid from the stomach into the esophagus
