A member asked:
Ive had a cough since jan when i had covid. the issue is i dont cough when i dont think about it or during the night. its only when i have nothing to do. i find myself also clearing my throat with it. non productive. could it be serious/habitual?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It could be habit or a degree of health anxiety such as thinking about it. I suspect any tracheal inflammation/irritation during the covid infection has resolved. If you still have concerns, consult a pulmonologist.
