A member asked:

Is there a link between acid reflux with chronic cough and stress?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Could be: Acid reflux may cause cough if the acid gets aspirated into lungs and causes inflammation. Stress can occur with or without acid reflux. If you are overweight, losing weight may help with all of these.
