How To Treat Chronic Cough And Burning Sensation In The Throat And Chest?
I was diagnosed with Strep throat 2 days ago and the doctor gave me cephalexin qty 20 and promethazine. I feel like I am getting worse because my cough is really bad now and my throat and chest are starting to burn with every cough. What should I do and or what do you recommend?

How To Treat Chronic Cough And Burning Sensation In The Throat And Chest?
Hello, Worsening cough and burning sensation can be due to Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Taking proton pump inhibitors like Esomeprazole (Nexium) will be helpful. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Nishad BN
