What Causes Coughing And Burning Sensation In Throat?
Ever since I started wearing top dentures, I choke and cough suddenly even when I have nothing in my mouth. I also have terrible burning in my throat, feels like something is stuck there I have been checked for thyroid, all is clear there. I have numbness under both big toes, don t know if it s related.

Hi,
Welcome to HCM,
I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.
on dentures, missing of big particals and accidental swallowing can cause cough.
chew several times, eat small gulps and take time to swallow.
in case of persistence needs ent evaluation to rule out other causes of aspiration causing cough.
all the best, take care.
