2 weeks ago a small finger nail got stuck in my throat. From that day onwards it felt something was stuck in my throat. But it doesn't hurt while swallowing food. I went to ent, they did upper endoscopy and told there is inflammation, nothing stuck. They told me it is because of gerd. I was prescribed antacids and ppis. Still now sometimes it feels something is stuck or my throat is getting dry. Why is this happening? Also how long it takes for gerd throat to heal?

This could be due to multiple problems which you are having moreover gerd takes considerable period of time to heal. Secondly stay away from cold, sour food drinks always take food at normal temperature keep a piece of ginger in mouth, dot chew it let the saliva formed to be swallowed slowly slowly.
