Treat allergies: Mainstream: zyrtec or Claritin (loratadine) in am; eliminate dust, dust mites and smoke from work environment. A hepa air filter will help alternative: essential oils of peppermint breathed from hands i find to very effective as well.

Treat acid reflux: Do you drink a lot of coffee at work? A glass of wine at night? These can cause acid reflux. Throat clearing is a classic symptom. You probably don't have any heartburn.

You may have: allergies; however you should also be checked for GERD- acid reflux which can also cause voice issues. I also suggest an ENT evaluation and visulaization of your vocal cords.
