Sore throat, burning sensation
I'm having sore throat from past 1 week with light burning sensation on stomach and chest. It feels like some pressure on chest. Sore throat reduces some time of the day and again occurs and also have light dry cough which is very rare. Have lost around 4-5kgs when weighed recently.. can you please help what could be the cause and can you prescribe some medicine for these conditions.
Note: I don't have a proper schedule for food, few weeks back I was not having breakfast for many days... Now following proper diet from few days.
Thank you.

This looks like classical GERD. Irregular food habits and junk food needs to avoided. Avoid oily and spicy food. Eat light at night, and have more fibres. Avoid sleeping immediately after food.
