What Can Be Taken For Cough Caused By Allergies?
my husband has a cough from allergies, but since last night when he coughs he has an extreme pressure pain in his inside left upper bicep. Like a blood pressure cuff has been over tightened 2 x too much. Arm does not hurt any other time except when he coughs then it is extremely painful.

Hi.
Cough allergy put pressure on lungs and coughing is done. It seems to exert pressure on lungs and neighbouring heart too.
Biceps has no direct link with it but your doctor should not ignore any remote possibility of precipitating IHD.
Little more inputs like BP condition etc would throw more light as also blood cholesterol report.
If I were your doctor I had preferred to exclude these too. Moreover if everything is found well but condition remains the same, I had advised to try hrbal medicines route too which are safe and known for treating allergies control asthma.
May I be of more help please?
