Could be acid reflux. Meet an ENT Specialist locally and discuss this possibility. A routine throat examination will reveal white linear mucosal erosions in the posterior and lateral throat walls to confirm the diagnosis. Medications with anti-reflux alginates, and antacids will help resolve the problem. The underlying issue is Stress which will also have to be dealt with to prevent recurrences.
