Sir, i would suggest you to get a video laryngoscopy(throat endoscopy) done. Continue the acidity medicines. Avoid spicy/oily food. Do not sleep immediately after food. Try keeping you head a little bit elevated with pillow while sleeping. As far as the throat pain is concerned, there could be some infection in the throat for which u need antibiotics. I could prescribe the medicine if u want. I advised endoscopy because it can help in identifying both infection and acidity problems.
