Problem in throat
Dear doctors, I'm sensing foreign particle in my throat since 1 year. Though it is not causing severe trouble but it always forces me to forcefully cough and clear the throat many times a day. But the sensation remains the same. What is the probable cause for this? Is there any cure for this problem?

this is known as Hacking cough and is a sign of Chronically infected Sinuses which is regularly dripping mucus into nose and thereon to the throat and thereby infecting it causing it to become nodular and giving rise to that sensation.
