How To Cure Acid Reflux And Congestion Of Mucus In Throat?

I have been clearing my throat all day long; this has been an issue for several years. It sounds like congestion of mucus but when I spit it up, it is thick saliva. I was told I have acid reflux; however, nothing works. Any ideas as to how I can conquer this discomfort?
