LPR : Laryngopharygeal reflux is when a small amount of acid and stomach enzyme come up into the throat and irritates it. It is a common cause of dry tickle cough, chronic sore throat, lump in the the throat , post nasal drip, phlegm in the throat, and throat clearing. Many studies show it responds best to proton pump inhibitor Rx. See an ENT to assess you.
