Hello,
It is due to acid regurgitation. Some drugs can also cause similar symptoms. As a first line management drugs like Pantoprazole or Omeprazole can be tried. If symptoms persist better to consult a gastroenterologist and plan for an endoscopy.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Wishing all the best.
Thank you.
