I've been feeling like there's something stuck in my throat for about 45 days now, almost like phlegm, but its not food. Its really annoying and I keep burping on purpose to try and get rid of this feeling. I Googled my symptoms and found something called globus pharyngis. I went to see another doctor and they gave me an acid reflux gel syrup, but it hasnt helped at all. I'm kind of worried and not sure what to do next. Could you offer some advice or share your thoughts on what might be going on?

I've been dealing with some discomfort lately where I get a lot of acidity, and the gas won't release, causing sharp pain around my food pipe. I'm really not sure what to do about it. Are there specific foods I should avoid to help with this?
To help alleviate these symptoms, you can take an antacid like Tums (calcium carbonate) to neutralize the excess stomach acid. Additionally, you can take simethicone, found in Gas-X, to help break up the gas bubbles and facilitate their passage out of the body. To prevent further episodes, it is advisable to avoid foods that can trigger acidity and gas such as spicy foods, carbonated beverages, fried foods, and foods high in fat. Instead, opt for a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins to help maintain a healthy digestive system.
