Brief Answer:
Surgery can be a good option.

Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir,

I understand your query and concern.

GERD can be permanently removed through Anti reflex surgeries.

Initially Acute esophagitis should be treated.

Meanwhile continue the prescribed medication to prevent the progression of esophagitis.

Exercise and dietary management will help.

Consult a Gastro intestinal surgeon for further management.

Post your further queries if any,

Thank you.
