Brief Answer:
Hi needs lifestyle modification

Detailed Answer:
Hello Mr XXXX,
Welcome to HCM.
Thank you for your query.
I understand your concern.
Possibly your throat pain could be related to reflux.
Worthwhile trying following things and see how you feel,
Avoid sleeping two hours after meals.
Elevate head end of bed by 4inches during sleep
Go for regular walk
Avoid smoking alcohol if any.
Can take trial of medicine like pantocid DSR once in morning before breakfast for two weeks and see how you feel.
Do salt water gargling twice a day.
Avoid smoke dust and allergens if possible.
If not better may need to see an Ent specialist and then an repeat endoscopy may be required.
Hope this answers your questions.
Wish you a speedy recovery.
Happy to help.
