- First of all, heartburn has nothing to do with the heart. At the bottom of your esophagus there is a circular band of muscles, known as the lower esophageal sphincter, which acts as a valve to the stomach. The lower esophageal sphincter (LES) allows food to enter the stomach and prevents stomach acids from coming back up into the esophagus. In some people the LES doesn't open and close properly. When stomach acid refluxes back into the esophagus it can cause a burning sensation in the chest. Since the esophagus doesn't have the same protective lining as the stomach, the acid can irritate sensitive tissues, which causes the pain known as heartburn.
