Patient's question:
I can't eat anything right now, and then I realized that I have esophagitis. I am currently taking medication, but I don't feel much improvement. I am very surprised. Fungal esophagitis, what medicine should be taken for fungal esophagitis?Doctor's answer:
The main causes of candidal esophagitis include long-term and excessive use of broad-spectrum antibiotics, prolonged use of hormone or anti-tumor drugs, and patients suffering from chronic diseases. Typically, these conditions can lead to malnutrition and weakened immunity, making individuals more susceptible to the ravages of candidal esophagitis. The fungi causing candidal esophagitis often originate from the mouth. It is recommended to rinse the face with baking soda, take low-concentration soda water orally, and use antimicrobial drugs, which usually alleviate symptoms quickly.
