It has a -complex pathophysiology that encompasses different mechanisms and an overlap with functional disorders that cause similar symptoms.

Nowadays, therapy is personalized and encompasses lifestyle interventions, proton pump inhibitors, surgery, neuromodulation, diaphragmatic breathing as well as, in the future, new drugs and endoscopic interventions.
