Ouch! Chronic cough and now my tongue's hurting

April 24, 2004

I suffer from allergies and allergy related asthma. This year is a bad year.

I've got most of the symptoms under control EXCEPT the cough. Nothing seems

to help me with my cough except sucking cough drops all day long. Literally.

If I don't pop another cough drop in my mouth within minutes of finishing

the last one, well, the cough's back!

All these cough drops have now affected my tongue. It's tender. Spicy food

is agony! I'm quite limited in what I can eat now. This has only come up in

the last couple of days but I'm in a quandry. I think my tongue will go back

to normal if I could just quit using cough drops but I can't be coughing all

day. I teach! I need to be able to talk without coughing.

Nothing the doctor has given me works.

A few years ago, I had this cough that was like a tickle in my throat and

got rid of it with the herb " osha " but I bought a bottle of osha and took

the whole thing in one day with no improvement.

Any suggestions?

My husband suffered from something similar and I had him take Spice Trader

Essential Oil and it went away.

Let me know if you'd like more info.

Anna ,

Have you tried Slippery Elm ?
