I can't talk without coughing

For over a week now Ive had a very tickly cough , it's right at the bottom of my throat.

When i talk I cough , I can just say "hello my na coughmcoughe*cough cough. Is so and so .

Even with my mouth closed as I breathe in air it really irritates my throat .

I've never had a cough like it . Also my glads are up but no sigh of a bacterial infection.

Could it be asthma?

My cough when I speak cough turned out to be atypical pneumonia... have you been to see your gp?

Might be asthma for sure. Could be anxiety or both. Try drinking honey with lemon in warm water. You could have a hair or something stuck in your throat.
Good luck. Flowers

Asthma ? I've never had that before .
I haven't been stressed , i just became a bit unwell for a day and developed a cough that got worse , honestly thought I was getting tonsillitis but I didn't develop a temperature....I think I'll book a gp in the morning .
Also my child has now got a really bad cough and is unwell🙁

I get asthma symptoms very infrequently (like, every 2-3 years) do it's not always persistent. Last year I had an awful croupy cough, which stemmed from laryngitis. Might fit with your sore throat? Sounds like a trip to the gp would be a good idea though.

Nobody has asthma before until they get it Confused
