I'm so sick of dealing with whatever this illness is I get every year. What is it?
So, every year, around this time, I get this tickle in the back of my throat that turns into me coughing like crazy. It almost feels as if I've inhaled a chemical. Either way, it starts out slow, like allergies, and progresses into me coughing so much and so hard that my chest gets sore. I went to Urgent Care last year and the doctor gave me an antibiotic and a cough medicine. The cough doesn't produce much phlegm at all, but it seems to build up overnight, which this crap is worst then. Eventually, as time goes on, I get this tickle in the back of my throat that makes me cough uncontrollably and my eye will water and sometimes feel like it's blinking on its own -- it might actually be. My voice will get scratchy and I'll get hoarse off and on. I don't have a fever and I feel fine. I don't feel sick at all. I have no clue, but I'm so tired of it. Does anyone know what this is or how to prevent or cure it?

Sounds like allergies to me. If the air is dry or you are taking allergy medicine which drys you out, try drinking more water. Do you live in an area that does yearly spraying for something about this time? Perhaps you have a sensitivity. If you live in an agriculture area, Is it harvest time for a particular product? We are invaded by stink bugs during this season as are many people, perhaps you are sensitive to them or another bug. Whatever it is, you have determined that it is seasonal. Start there: Have an allergy doctor give you an allergy test for different things he suggests. I had that done years ago due to persistant allergies. I was suprised to learn was allergic to everything he tested me for except cats. I received a weekly treatment and it really helped. Eat local honey...something else to do for allergies. It will help you become immune to any allergies you may have to local natural irritants.

I agree with percussion. Sounds like it started out as allergies that turned into bronchitis and then maybe a lung infection. Eye twitching is caused by stress. She's also right about local honey. I'd recommend natural antibiotics. The bugs don't become resistant to them, like taking prescription antibiotics. This would include ACV, honey, onion, cabbage, garlic, oil of oregano, colloidal silver, and many more. Just google natural antibiotics to find more. A humidifier can also help. But its best to find out what your allergens are and avoid them.

Thank you for your answer. I wouldn't say that my eye twitches on its own. It's just that whenever I have one of these coughing spells, it can sometimes get really red, water, and feel like it's irritated. It's always the right eye, too.
