What Is Causing Itchy Throat And Cough?
I have an itchy throat which causes my coughing. This started 2 weeks ago when I have colds. Right now I m still taking Claridin-D 12hrs. My cold is gone but I m still coughing. I try to stay away from things/ food that could cause allergies. My cough is not productive, no phlegm. What could be the possible cause of my itchy throat?

Hi.
Thanks for your query.

The cause of dry irritating cough is an allergy.
You can find out by keel observation of the factors like scents, pollen, dust, mites,molds,mildews and so on.
Once found out you have to strictly keep away and takeedicines including oral steroids as it is more than 15 days that you are suffering, to avoid its secondary effects.
