A member asked:
Lots of coughing after eating a popcicle. i am diagnosed with asthma but i suspect i may have vocal cord dysfunction too. sound like vcd?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
VCD: Can mimic asthma, and at times aggrevated by exercise, coughing while eating Popsicles is more likely asthma, at any rate ask your doctor to check it out either by spirometry / upper airways endoscopy if he/she really suspects the condition
