Looks like post nasal drip which can be due to chronic sinusitis. Since you are also getting burp, GERD ie reflux is suspected.
Next Steps
Further clinical examination of the throat including oropharnyx, laryngopharynx will help in determining the cause. Also avoiding spicy food, alcohol, smoking helps. And regular meals is important.
