Hello
Welcome in H.C.M.
I have gone through your query regarding burning in throat and the chest and stomach.
I am suspecting that most likely you are having severe gastric irritation with GERD. and now you may take-
1- Antacid with PPI.
2- Avoid spicy foods.
3- Drink adequate water and fluid.
4- Avoid smoking.
5- Take proper rest.
I hope above will help you ,otherwise upper G.I. endoscopy will be necessary to find out the fact.
Regards.
