What Causes Cold Air Sensation In Throat?

default
Posted on Fri, 14 Aug 2015
Question: Hello, I've been coughing a little for the last two days, and there's a strange cold air sensation in my throat(could be cold liquid feeling). I've also been clearing my throat more than usual(I'm a non-smoker/drinker, but I've always as long as I remember had to clear my throat for some reason). Other than that I don't feel sick or have any pains of any kind, but wanted to be sure it's nothing serious. I went to the doctor two weeks ago for a normal checkup and everything was fine, but now I have these symptoms. Just curious what it could be. Any help would be great.

Brief Answer:
You are mostly having viral URTI.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
By your history and description, possibility of viral Upper respiratory tract infection (URTI)is more.
So better to avoid stress and tension. Avoid oily and spicy food. Drink plenty of fluids orally and keep yourself hydrated.
Start antihistamines and anti inflammatory drugs.
Do warm water gargles 5-6 times a day.
Don't worry, you will be alright.
Hope I have solved your query.
I will be happy to help you further.
Wish you good health. Thanks.
