A member asked:

Bad acid in throat for 3 days then thick, swollen feeling in throat, lower part. related? just reflux? acid now passed - can i have a glass of wine?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Sounds like Reflux: Probably reflux which can be related to certain things you eat and drink and alcohol especially can cause reflux. I would tread carefully you might find wine is ok or makes reflux come back. You can also now take over the counter anti-acid like Prilosec to help with reflux symptoms.
