Feeling Of Obstruction In Throat, Cough, Shaking Arms, Headache, Body Ache, Exhaustion
I'm 20 years old, I had Strep throat and the flu a month ago. I got 100% better, but suddenly as of 5 days ago, I feel like there is something stuck in my throat. It is making me cough, a lot. I'm coughing so hard its starting to hurt my chest, it almost feels like its dry and bruised in there. I'm not coughing anything up. If I'm not coughing i have no trouble eating or drinking, and when I finally do fall asleep its all good. I'm coughing for 30 mins at a time at least, with only 10 - 15 mins of relief in between and I am exhausted and shaking a lot. My hands and arms are shaking really badly.
and its starting to give me a headache and a body ache.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I can understand your problem If I would be your doctor then I would definitely advise you to stop coughing because a this will more worsening the condition the sensation of coughing is actually due to the acid reflex, and nothing else and for that you will have to start the Omeprazole 40 mg just at evening time for six week this will be alright, and no need to worry avoid coffee, alcohol prior to bed time have nice day
