Hi, I am Dr. Samiron Roy, your ENT Splst.
Chronic Pharyngitis can occur due to GERD. Over and above this one can also get bacterial tonsilo-pharyngitis. You are probably having this. So you start on the foll. medicine:-
1.Hexidine gurgle tid (150ml warm water + 10ml Hexidine).
2.Tab Cefpodoxime Proxitel 200mg 1bid pc X 10days.
3.Tab Chymoral Forte 1tid ac X 19days.
4.Tab Pan-D 1od ac at 6am X 10days. (stop Omez).
5.Cap Folcovit 1od pc X 10days.
6.Avoid icecream, cold drink and fridge water and smoking.
