What Causes Throat Irritation And Chronic Cough?
On Wednesday I went into a house for sale, the house was a hoarders house and had been on the news while trying to open the door an car stopped in the street and warned us about going in but we did anyway and ever since my throat has been irritated, feels like a fur ball in back of throat and and coughing up mucus.... The neighbor lady in car said there were dead rats and mice and etc... in the house My realtor talked to the lady so I really don t know what was all said but my Realtor did not go in... It smelt really bad and sure the hoarder had died in there as it smelt really bad. there and also I think who ever cleaned out the flooring etc had to spay heavy pesticides to kill the mice and rats and bugs and I think that is what has irritated my throat? I also was wondering the symptoms of hontra viris...? There were warning signs all over in side but I did not know what they meant..... any advice?

Hi Dear,
welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query throat irritation and chronic cough is because of infection travel down the respiratory track and affected whole area an leads to granular pharyngitis and sinusitis. I would suggest you to again consult your ENT specialist for proper examination . Doctor may perform laryngoscopy or biopsy to confirm diagnosis . He/she may prescribe further antibiotic course and stronger antibiotics. Drink glass of warm water with one spoon of honey and ginger extract. You should put xylomist nasal drops to prevent congestion. You should take chicken soup along with along with lemon tea. Take diet rich in vitamin C , which will boost immunity. Take combination of Sinarest along with Levocetrizine.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
