Hello.
Welcome to HCM,

The history and symptoms are suggestive of irritation of the esophageal mucosa due to regurgitation, infection and injury.

The symptoms are due to edema which is causing the symptoms of difficulty in swallowing.

I would suggest you to follow
1. Eat less spicy foods.
2. Mucaine gel
3. Tab omez
4. Drink plenty of water.
Thank you.
