Hi, thanks for using Healthcaremagic.

I went through your query and understood your concerns.

During endoscopy procedure there will be minimal trauma to mucosa of esophagus, which is resulting your symptoms. Not to worry, your symptoms should reduce with in 15 days. Acid reducing medications like protan pump inhibitors do help to reduce your symptoms. Try to take semi solid or liquid foods for few days.

Hope I answered your query. Feel free to ask further related query.
