Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The burning sensation over the throat and chest is because of the gastric irritation caused by the antibiotics you have taken. Nothing to be panic, you can take a course of antacids like ranitidine before food for a week. Do not consume spicy food.
I hope I have answered your query, take care.
