Throat Irritation and Cough
My mother is suffering from throat Irritation and Cough since 4 days. She is currently in Bangalore where the weather is constantly changing in a single day. She is diabetic, has BP issues and currently taking medicines for both. She has also undergone an endoscopy/colonoscopy procedure post which she is taking medicines related to gastritis/bacteria. Please recommend what would be the best way to get rid of the throat Irritation/cough given the existing issues she has.
