Like ischemic chest pain, it may be relieved by nitroglycerin. Esophageal chest pain is classically non-exertional, and can be spontaneous, post-prandial, or occur at night. Symptoms may last for minutes to hours. It is often associated with other esophageal symptoms, such as heartburn, regurgitation, and dysphagia.

It is not uncommon to have recurrent symptoms requiring repeat dilation.

Endoscopists may use air insufflation to identify these rings better during the examination. 25).
