A member asked:

What is a remedy for a sneeze that turns into a cough this is always followed by an annoying tickle and cough from the back of my throat?

Dr. Michael Zacharisen answered

Specializes in Allergy and Immunology

Possible allergy: Typical allergy symptoms are itching, sneezing, post nasal drainage with cough and nasal congestion. If an antihistamine helps, this would support the idea that an allergy is present. An allergist can assist in identifying what the allergy is and provide additional treatment options if necessary.
