Suggest Medication To Cure Burning Sensation In Throat

I have had acid reflux since I was a child am now 39. About 8days ago, I woke up with hoarseness ,a mild sore throat and the feeling that something was stuck in my throat. Shortly after my stomach felt bloated and hurt like there was acid reflux. I started taking omeprazole in the morning and gaviscon at night. It worked for the boars but not the burning sensation, I started to take omeprazole at night too. I feel 60% better but still have the burning sensation in my throat for time to time (everyday).

Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC ..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your query it seems that you have symptoms of acid reflux and should continue taking Omeprazole, take antacid like Milk of Magnesia or Calcium carbonate before meals..
Take H2 blockers like Ranitidine or Famotidine..
Take small portion of food every 2 hours, avoid spicy and acidic foods, drink plenty of water, loose weight if you are obese, take short walk after meals, do regular moderate workout .
Sleep with head slightly raised as compared to feet and recline in left lateral position..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
