Does acid reflux ever go away/ is it a permanent condition that will reappear from time2time once you have it?

Reflux can be caused by many things. If you're obeise, losing weight will decrease the episodes. Also, sometimes when the stomach is sensetive to certain types of food, like spicy ones, cutting these types of food will make reflux go away. So it really depends on the reason why you have reflux and what provokes it.
