Sore throat /reflux: Avoid alcohol, citrus /acid foods, caffeine, motrin like products , fatty foods as they can worsen reflux. Consider famotadine / omeprazole for treatment . But would follow up with GI ( gastroenterology) for evaluation to make sure nothing else is going on like food allergies-especially dairy or eosinophilic esophagitis, and ENT as may be post nasal drip as well or other oral pathology
