Throat Infection lasting since one Month

Hello,
I am Santosh, 22 years old ,male suffering from frequent throat infection since past 1 year. The infection normally clears after 7 days after medication but this time, one month has passed the infection has not gone completely though there is reduction in SEVERITY.
There is a tissue like growth at the base of my throat also.
Normally the infection occurs when I have oily food, spicy food, chocolates, cold drinks.. if i have those foods then i will have a sore throat, then will have a mild fever and body ache..I feel very down mentally after while having these problems.
I visited a Dr he said the problem was due to ACIDITY and rightly so I have severe problem of the same.
Kindly suggest a remedy for my problem and precautions that i need to take to avoid getting the infection in future.
