Symptoms

A cough is always inconvenient, but a tickly cough can make life miserable. A constant, nagging tickle in your throat can ruin your day and stop you sleeping at night. And what’s the result of all this coughing? A sore throat that may cause pain and discomfort when swallowing, eating and even talking.

If you’ve caught a bad cold or you’re suffering from flu, you may be experiencing a range of unpleasant symptoms, including a sore throat. With a cold, you may still be able to go about your everyday life to a certain point but your sore throat may make some of your usual activities very difficult. If you’re in the grip of the flu, you probably won’t be able to carry on with your normal routine but your throat pain could mean it’s difficult to sleep.

A dry cough can have many causes, and in some cases this problem can be persistent. You may find yourself coughing at all times of the day or night, without feeling like you’re clearing anything from your throat or chest. This can be exhausting, and may keep you (and possibly your partner) up at night. Another side effect from all that coughing can be a sore, dry throat. You might find that it hurts to swallow, talk, eat and drink.
