What Causes Persistent Cough With Sense Of Throat Obstruction?
I have had breast cancer 4 years ago in remission. Recently a month ago having a persistent cough due to always feeling something stuck in my throat. Votive becomes hoarse and yesterday there was abit of blood in the phlegm as coughed too much. Went to a doctor who said I was having an allergy due to food. But it s been a month and I have been careful in terms of food intake. Should I be more worried and seek 2nd opinion?
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, such symptom is not due to the history of malignancy but this could be due to some allergic condition and this can be well managed by drinking more water and taking antihistamine, "Tab Diphenhydramine" is the option, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
