UNDERSTANDING SORE THROATS AND COUGHS

Classic symptoms include irritation, a ‘burning sensation’ at the back of the throat and pain when swallowing.

If the irritation persists, the sore throat can develop into a ‘dry cough’ that is tickly and doesn’t produce any phlegm. This other type is the 'chesty cough'. This type produces phlegm and often sounds wet or bubbly.
