Causes

• The causes of EoE are as follows:
• The food and pollen react with the lining of the esophagus, these allergens cause the multiplication of eosinophils in the layers of the esophagus and produce a protein that causes inflammation.
• The inflammation further cause scarring, excessive fibrous tissue deposition over the lining of the esophagus eventually leading to dysphagia.
• The dysphagia can sometimes worsen to cause food impaction and additional symptoms such as chest pain.
