I'm a 31-year-old male who had gall bladder removal surgery in 2016 and have been on hypertension meds for the past year with an average BP of 120/90 mmHg. For the last month, I've had this throat issue where it feels like mucus is running down my throat on and off, and for the past 10 days, I've also been dealing with constipation and gastric problems. An ENT specialist checked my throat and mentioned pharyngitis, prescribing Pan DSR and Sinarest 500 mg for 10 days. I finished the course, but the symptoms are still there. Could this be more related to my throat or an abdomen issue? What should I do next?

an upper GI endoscopy is advised.gasteroenterology review.
