What Causes Occasional Fit Of Cough On Intake Of Food Or Drink?
For the last 15 or so years I cough regularly starting with a tickle and then gets worse for the next 2 or 3 minutes and as fast as it starts it goes. Sometimes even drinking water will start it. Whatever I start to eat it will trigger it off as well then when it s stops I continue to eat without any problem
