FEELING OF SOMETHING STUCK IN THROAT
From past one month I am having feeling of something stuck in throat and feeling of mild warmness in the throat region. Is this GERD OR acid laryngitis ?
I am taking PAN- L and GAVISCON SYRUP but to no use.
Should I change the PPI and switch to Esomeprazole or Omeprazole for GERD ?
Which is the best PPI to treat GERD and acid laryngitis ?
