What is the cause of a tickling cough in the throat

  Most of the throat itching and coughing are respiratory problems. Possible diseases include allergic pharyngitis or bronchitis and tracheitis. You can mainly take some oral anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic and treatment drugs for pharyngitis, and oral phlegm-reducing drugs when there is a lot of phlegm.  Patients with allergic pharyngitis may experience itching of the throat, cough with a small amount of coughing sputum, and some patients may experience foreign body sensation, burning sensation, hoarseness in the throat, etc. There is usually no obvious yellow pus sputum and other uncomfortable symptoms. Most patients with allergic pharyngitis have symptoms due to repeated exposure to allergens after the body’s resistance has decreased. For the treatment of allergic pharyngitis, oral anti-allergic drugs are usually taken, such as loratadine citrate, cetirizine, etc. Also, some drugs for pharyngitis should be taken orally, such as compound double flower tablets, sweet orange and Bingmei tablets, etc. The diet should be light, avoid eating spicy and stimulating, fish, shrimp, seafood and other foods that can easily cause allergies, drink more warm water, pay attention to keep warm, avoid getting cold and flu.  If the symptoms of throat itching and coughing are caused by bronchitis and tracheitis, patients will cough up sputum, sometimes with more yellow pus sputum. Most of these diseases are caused by infections from bacteria, viruses and other factors. For the treatment of these diseases, the main focus is on anti-inflammatory treatment, taking oral antibiotics such as levofloxacin, amoxicillin, cefdinir, etc. If the coughing sputum is high, you can use phlegm-reducing drugs, such as Mucosolvan.  Therefore, for patients with itchy throat and cough symptoms, if there is no obvious coughing symptom, they can be treated symptomatically according to allergic pharyngitis; if there is more coughing phlegm, they can be treated symptomatically according to bronchitis and tracheitis. If there is no significant improvement after taking medication for a week, it is best to go to the hospital for an electronic laryngoscope and chest CT to clarify the diagnosis and then treat the symptoms.
