It could be better if you can provide the history in more detail. Do you have heartburn? Do you feel regurgitation? Do you have recurrent clearing of throat?
It could be LPRD (Laryngopharyngeal reflux disease) which can be causing repeated irritation/discomfort/pain in the throat.
Next Steps
Better to avoid spicy and very sour foods. Quit smoking (in case)
Avoid sleeping immediately post dinner. Better to have a gap of minimum 2 hours post dinner before going to bed.
