See doctor: What you need is not to appease your mom, but to find out what's going on. Do you smoke? Do you have cystic fibrosis (you'd probably know that)? Do you have sinus issues? Go see a doctor. You're an adult and need to be proactive about your health.

Many possibly causes: Hello There could be multiple causes for your chronic cough. Such as asthma, acid reflux, post nasal drip, or smoking. If you smoke you need to stop. Acid reflux is usually accompanied by a burning throat as well as coughing. Asthma is denoted by difficulty in breathing and coughing. Post nasal drip feels like there is fluid running down the back of your throat with coughing. Pls see your doc.

Possibly acid reflux: given the timing. Try a stomach acid pill daily and don't eat anything two hours before you go to bed.
