Content: Over time, chronic inflammation and irritation lead to the formation of scar tissue. This scar tissue weakens the muscles of the esophagus, causing difficulty and pain when swallowing. As the disease progresses, it can cause chronic acid reflux and increase the risk of esophageal cancer. Esophageal dysmotility can cause acid reflux. Dysmotility disorders of the esophagus are generally incurable. The main objective of treatment is therefore symptom management and relief. Several types of medication can be used for dysmotility treatment, including calcium channel blockers and botulinum toxin. Dietary modifications can help relieve symptoms, and some disorders can be improved with surgery. Esophageal dysmotility may cause chest pain muscle spasms. The primary medications used to treat esophageal dysmotility disorders such as achalasia are calcium channel blockers.
