A member asked:
My throat has been scratchy for over a month and the only thing that helps are cough drops. why? i drink plenty of water and i don't think i'm sick.

Could be: ...Post-viral, which can last weeks, or allergic. Should see your dr, as may benefit from steroid burst to shut down cough.
