Hi dear ,

As per your query you have sore throat and doctor prescribed aciloc . The symptoms you mention in query are pointing towards a condition known as acid reflux . I would suggest you to avoid spicy and heavy food specially at night , eat one hour before going to bed , take a light walk after every meal and take antacid like gelusil . If condition doesn't get better in a week then consult ENT specialist for proper examination . Doctor may order tests like viral culture test , swab test and blood test to rule out viral infection .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
