A member asked:
I've had a "mysterious" cough for few months, now it only happened whenever i eat or drink, doctors said it's not food allergy or acid reflux

Mysterious cough: When eating kr drinking you are stimulating your olfactory glands which produces mucus. As a result of a postnasal drip you begin to cough. Using saline nose drops before eating might help.
