Overview
Coughing is a reflex action that helps to clear the throat and airways of foreign particles, mucus, and irritants. It can be caused by a variety of factors like respiratory infections, allergies, GERD, smoking, Asthma etc. Coughs can be dry, wet or chronic. It can lead to shortness of breath, chest pain, soar throat and other symptoms.
