What Causes Chronic Cough And Difficulty In Swallowing?
Hi I recently had the flu but so ce have gotten over it. I have been drinking mountain dew for 15 years and recently my throat has been hurting, have been coughing, and hurts like crazy to swallow. I have slowed down on Mtn dew since I was younger. I drink a 44oz a day sometimes 2. Could this be causing my issues? And how do I stop the pain. I don t smoke or do drugs but I do chew.

Hello,
Consult a gastroenterologist and get an endoscopy to look for any growth or lesion in the upper throat which can cause similar symptoms.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
