How To Treat Itchiness In Ears And Chest Due To Cough?

Hi, I ve been coughing and my insides feel itchy. My inner ears and chest are always itchy and my face feels dry and itchy. I cough and wheeze a lot and I can sometimes taste blood. Sometimes my ears itch then I can taste blood. Is this just an allergic reaction?

Pulmonologist,  's  Response
Thanks for your question on HCM. In my opinion you are having allergic disease.
I advice you to consult pulmonologist and get done chest x ray and PFT (Pulmonary Function Test).
This will tell you about allergic bronchitis present or not and also about its severity.
Try to follow this treatment.
1. Try to identify allergen and complete avoidance is needed.
2. Antihistamines and anti inflammatory drugs.
3. Inhaled bronchodilators like long acting beta 2 agonist and corticosteroids.
4. SOS nasal sprays if itching is not improving.
