Constant clearing of the throat? allergies or a habit?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: One clears the throat because of irritation. The question then becomes what is the irritation.Post nasal drip from allergies or sinus disease could be the cause. Heartburn can sometimes cause this as well. In some, throat clearing can become a habit.
