What Causes Burning Sensation And Pain In Throat?
For the past four months I have had a burning, prickly, painful throat just under the jaw, around my glands. Acid medication (both prescription and non-prescription) do not help. Dr s do not seem to know what the problem is (they keep diagnosing acid reflux, but it is not triggered by food (as far as I can tell and I am currently on a very bland diet) and no acid reflux remedies or life style changes have helped whatsoever. Do you know what this could be?

Hi,
Do upper gastroduodenoscopy to rule out the diagnosed GERD. It also helps to identify the defect in the throat if any. Do you have any swelling in the neck? If it is there, it may indicate other problems. Please mention your age, weight and age to come across more clear diagnosis.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
