Hi Dear ,

As per your query you have acid reflux disease and you have to clear your throat again and again . Well the symptoms you mention in query can occur due to many reasons , but in your case it seems to me that symptoms are due to acid reflux . Well acid reflux along with medicine and surgery require life style changes also . I would suggest you to avoid spicy and heavy food specially at night , eat at least one hour before going to sleep , take light walk after every meal , take antacid after every meal and take small and frequent meals . If condition doesn't improve or get worse then consult gastroenterologist for proper evaluation . Doctor may prescribe ranitidine or omeprazole or may consider resurgery .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
