A member asked:

After exercise or even breathing in hard, trachea feels dry and hurts. cough a lot. is it because i am sick or asthma. cough for few mins after. ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Multiple Causes: It could be nothing besides normal reaction to exercise. It is a good thought about asthma, but see a doctor for questioning and exam. These are not specific symptoms of anything serious, except the asthma idea should be checked.
