Brief Answer:
Rule out chronic pharyngitis.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thank you for your query.

1. If your throat examination and endoscopy is within normal limits, there is no cause for worry.

2. Routine medication will settle down this condition which is most likely to be a chronic pharyngitis.

3. A course of a broad spectrum antibiotic, anti allergic, anti inflammatory medication and medicated gargles should decrease the pain. Anti reflux medication may be added.

4. A routine haemogram and throat swab for culture and sensitivity testing is recommended.

5. Diet should be bland and keep yourself well hydrated.

6. Upload the test results .

I hope that I have answered your query. If you have any more questions I will be available to answer them.

Regards.

Hi,

Thank you for writing back.

1. Your reports show gastritis.

2. Acid reflux commonly causes this sensation in the throat.

3. Anti-reflux medication takes 8 to 12 weeks to bbe effective along with lifestyle / diet changes.

4. You may try a combination of rabeprazole and levosulpiride for a couple of weeks. Add Histac EVT tablets (dissolve in water) and Mucaine Gel.

5. Let me know the progress after 10 days.

I hope that I have answered your query. If you have any more questions I will be available to answer them.
