A member asked:
If you cough something up from your lung is it normal to feel numbness or irritation in the throat?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: If you cough vigorously enough you may irritate your trachea or pharynx and cause discomfort until healing occurs. This healing should occur within days if there's no further harsh coughing.
