    Esophageal ulcers are closely related to diet. This is because the wall of the esophagus is composed of mucous membranes. It is very delicate and can only tolerate food at 50-60 ℃. Above this temperature, the mucous membrane of the esophagus will be burned. The temperature of overheated food is about 70-80℃, like freshly brewed tea, the temperature can reach 80-90℃, it is easy to burn the esophagus wall. If you often eat hot food, the mucosal damage has not been repaired and you are scalded, which can form superficial ulcers.
