Chronic cough solved! (1) (1)
I had a chronic cough for almost a year, took antibiotics, which are generally overused for the wrong purposes. I ended up at a neighborhood medical clinic where the doctors specialized in particular areas of medicine, but offered there services at a lower rate for general concerns. One of the doctors who specialized in gastrointestinal disorders and was able to accurately diagnose my condition as having developed an allergy. Since I had not had allergies in the past, I thought I always had some bronchial problem, but the doctor found it was an allergy and sinus condition with post nasal drip that caused me to cough. He told me to get an over the counter saline irrigation system to irrigate my sinuses and general allergy medicine and it worked, I have my condition under control. Didn't have to spend much money and it cleared it up. I have to maintain the condition about 2 times a week, but now I am not suffering. I had gone to several ear, nose and throat specialists regarding the problem, but this gastrointestinal doctor solved it! I am a happy camper!
