Cough and occasional chest congestion
I have phlegm in my throat, it won't come out, neither can I swallow it. I have a sore throat and coughing because of this for a very long time. Recently after I was admitted in the hospital because of kidney stones, I started to have chest congestion too, I have a burning sensation from my throat to chest.
