Why Am I Having Itch In My Throat And Cough?

My throat gets a terrible itch And then I cough so hard until I wet myself or feel like I am choking until I hack up some white frothy salty phlegm, this happens every 30-60 minutes. I am just getting over a bad cold but this cough is annoying and makes my throat and chest hurt. What is going on? Please help....

Hi , it is just allergic pharyngitis. Causing cough.
Treatment is antihistamines with mucolytic for 2 weeks.
Avoid cold and oily foods.
