Thanks for contacting healthcare magic.

You have problem of burning sensation in oesophagus that may be because of gastroesophageal reflux disease.

Infection of oesophagus called oesophagitus may cause burning sensation .

Hiatus hernia that cause more acid back flow towards oesophagus that may cause burning sensation in oesophagus.

Achalasia means end of oesophagus not properly open so it cause food collection aroun the junction.

Endoscope is helpful for diagnosis.
Take care.
