Hi,
Thanks for writing to hcm.
On doing endoscopy there might be irritation of the mucosa that can lead to sore throat.
It may need a weeks time to get ok. Kindly do salt water gargle.
Also the sour taste in the mouth might need 4-6 weeks time as proton pump inhibitors may take time to show their effects.
Kindly take bland diet. Eat 6 small meals. Every two hours snack on biscuits and fruits.
Donot lie down immediatedly after eating.
Regards,
Dr.Riyanka
