Hi,

I understand your concern for burning in the throat and chest. There are various causes for that. But your condition is something innocent. It is most likely due to acid regurgitation from your stomach back to mouth burning the esophagus and the chest burning sensation and throat burn.

I would suggest my patients consult a Gastroenterologist for the problem as they are better in that. It is advisable to follow their advice and not to worry a lot.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
