don't worry its not a serious problem.all you need is some lifestyle modifications and dietary advices. you are suffering from GERD (gastroesophagel reflux disease) or in your words gastritis. the acid or gastric juices that are their to digest your food particles are regurgitating back into your throat because of some bad habits. first of all start taking regular meals with no long gaps in between. stop fasting even for religious occasions. avoid spicy, oily and fatty foods.stop tea, coffee ,smoking in abundance. do some exercise. lose weight if obese. don't go to sleep immediately after meals and keep your head end elevated while sleeping.don't do frequent gargles or repeated cleaning of throat to induce gag.this all changes will definetely help you. you can also start a course of T.PAN 40 D OD BBF
SYP. MUCAINE GEL 2 tsf TDS
T. MONTECOPE A HS for a period of 2 wks..
hope to get well soon.
