Heartburn is a nasty burning sensation in the throat or chest which occurs often after eating and when lying down. It can be painful or just uncomfortable and may be caused by reflux where the acid from the stomach comes back out of the top.

Eczema is a general term for any type of skin inflammation. Sometimes it can be very mild, just dry flaky skin and in other people it can cause skin to be very red and inflamed, itchy, dry and sore. It is an allergic reaction because people that suffer from it tend to have extra histamine in their bodies which is what is produced when there is an allergic reaction to something. People with eczema tend to have a higher likelihood of having other allergies too.
