In reply to throat clearing,coughing, etc... » McPac, posted by Willow on June 9, 2003, at 9:44:04
The first symptom I had of alergies was flem in my throat that required frequent clearing. My sinuses were just draining down my throat rather than my nose. This also irritated my throat and caused some coughing. Has your niece been tested for alergies?
