Hi there,

Thanks for writing in.

Tickling sensation in the throat could be either due to allergies or GERD(gastro esophageal reflux disease).It could be due to allergies since you just recently moved into a new house.

You could try cetirizine for 3 days.
Have warm water at regular intervals.
One teaspoon of honey might be soothing.

Use a mask while dusting the house ;as dust might be the cause of allergy.
Avoid smoking /exposure to smoke

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Dr. Divya Kuttikrishnan
