[25z] vs Flop raise on FD board [25z] vs Flop raise on FD board

Hey all,

I'm playing between 16z and 25z at the moment. It's quite similar. 25z a bit more 3b pre and post flop skills seem around the same except for one spot...

I'm getting raised a lot on FD flops by flush draws. This doesn't happen often enough at 16z to worry about but at 25z I'm feeling like I need to have a good strategy here.

General
25z+ players do you have any advice on these spots for someone just starting to encounter it?

I'm not folding better than 2nd pair to a raise but then if they bomb turn on a brick I start to feel lost. I don't like basing my strategy off whether villain bets or not.

Specific
Here's an example - I had an A that rates to beat his FDs and back door FD myself so I'm happy calling the flop but if he bets the turn what's your thought process?
