What's it called when....

[Pretender]

You eat some very hot (temperature) food after you've been hungry for a while and it gives you this insane pain as if your chest is spontaneously combusting?

 

[Zoltar]

Don't partake in consuming the aforementioned food any longer.

 

[piku]

It just might be the 150 degree piece of food in your throat that makes it feel like your throat is burning.

Just a guess.

 

[Pretender]

I'd normally cease eating the food, but it's rice. Plain white rice, seasoned rice, all hot (warm or cold rice doesn't affect me) rice seems to have this effect, so I doubt it's a reaction to the food itself. I thought this might be some normal condition to hot foods, but since you guys don't seem to know about it, I guess it seems as though I'm going to have to be un-anandtechian and talk to a doctor...

I think you're describing Heartburn or Acid Reflux.

[bigrash]

I think it's called "Running to the bathroom really, really fast."

[Pretender]

Ah, I had a feeling it was heartburn or acid reflux, but I didn't want to mention anything so that you guys wouldn't just agree with my assumption. Thanks for the help, Anandtech medical community
