What Causes Cough When Laughing And At Night?

On 2 June I choked while drinking soup. It was not boiling hot soup. I coughed and coughed and now I have not stopped coughing for over 4 weeks. Mainly when I laugh and at night. Could I have damaged my throat or is it possible that I still have something in my lungs?

Hi.
I got your point. I treat so many patient like this in my clinic.
It is air way hypersensitivity due to allergy caused by foriegn body.
Just use anti allergic tablets
Avoid breathing in cold air.
Steam inhalation from boiling water will sooth your throat.
It is better to consult your pulmonologist.
I will be happy to help you further.
wish you good health
