Can chronic throat clearing & excessive swallowing (+2 yrs), be caused by pvvn or lsn? tried all scans, allergy tests, allergy & reflux meds by 3x ent

Yes.: Post Viral Vagal Neuropathy and Laryngeal Sensory Neuropathy can cause your symptoms. These terms are often used interchangeably. The condition is often multifactorial and needs to be approached and treated by several modalities at the same time. The larynx becomes hypersensitive and a cough can be triggered by allergies, LPR,reflux etc: see http://bit.ly/2duDbkD and http://bit.ly/2cQVNJl
