Gut dysbiosis: You may have gut dysbiosis which is bacteria overgrowth or yeast that is causing irritation in the esophagus. The antibiotic that you took killed off the good protective bacteria in your GI tract. I would recommend that you take the best highest quality probiotic that you can find for at least 2- 3 months.
