Specializes in ENT and Head and Neck Surgery

Itchy throat: Hello, i believe your itchy throat probably has little to do with kissing your girlfriend. Itching may be a sign of an allergy as could be the ache in the trachea. An evaluation by your doctor with possible allergy testing/airway evaluation is in order.
