Had dry throat for 6 days then started to get sore throat pain consulted physician diagnosed with pharyngitis took Augmentin 625 for 5 days. While taking this tablet I felt something coming down from my throat like food stuck and coming down. Throat pain was little better after taking tablet but the antibiotic has caused bloating, nausea and slight diarrhoea in me. I still had discomfort and felt like not completely cured throat pain so checked with ENT. ENT said I have mild granular pharyngitis and GERD, gave me geliusil and panstone dsr as prescription for 5 days. Does this throat pain really because of acidity? Do I need to do any other test? Will this throat discomfort go if I take acidity medicine. I don't drink or smoke, not obsese too, I am confused and worried please advice?
