Could a simple neck band help stop throat burn from stomach acid?

NCT ID NCT05695846

Summary

This study aimed to create better tests to diagnose when stomach acid backs up into the throat (pharyngeal reflux). Researchers planned to study patients with this condition to understand how a valve in the throat fails. They also wanted to test if gentle external pressure on the neck could help prevent this reflux without affecting swallowing or burping.
