Is it the coronavirus that makes my throat tickle and I want to cough all the time?

A tickling throat and a constant urge to cough do not necessarily mean a novel coronavirus infection. The main symptoms of novel coronavirus infection are fever, weakness, dry cough, and a few people will have nasal congestion, runny nose, sore throat, muscle aches, diarrhea, etc. Most of the symptoms of itchy throat are due to pharyngitis. If you usually have bad habits such as smoking, staying up late, and eating spicy and irritating food, it may be chronic pharyngitis. If the itchy throat is caused by the recent cold or weather changes, most of them are caused by viral invasion of the throat. In terms of treatment, chronic pharyngitis can be treated with Chinese medicines that nourish Yin and moisten dryness, such as Xuanmai Ganqiang granules, while western medicines can be used with anti-allergy drugs, such as loratadine, paracetamol, ketotifen, etc. In daily life, you need to pay attention to drink more warm water, light diet, do not stay up late.
