How Can An Irritating Throat With Coughing Be Treated?

Have recent diagnosis of barrets, no cancer found, have also been on acid blockers for about thirty years. I am 65 now in realative good health but this throat thjing is getting to me so I recently started taking digesta cure 6 weeks back, my throat always feels irritated, wakes me at times and always coughing to try and rid of the irritation with no success. Don t know if this digesta cure is helping any and of course at a price of $160 per bottle that s no help either. Question is this irritable throat that s always either bothering me mentally or physically, is this normal, had my scope back about 3 months now ,they said it was ok then but now im wondering who to see what to do.

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Read and understood the history.
Good to know that there is no cancer in spite of Barretts. Thirty years is a long time to be on acid blockers.
Now the problems is: throat thing is getting to me so I recently started taking digesta cure 6 weeks back, my throat always feels irritated, wakes me at times and always coughing to try and rid of the irritation with no success.
I do not think that it is helping.

To see the throat you need the scopy of the Pharynx to be done by an ENT surgeon. He can help you on clinical evaluation, endoscopy whether you have a real problem locally or due to something else and will treat you accordingly .
