All four of us are coughing in the house. We figure it is because of the weather. Allergies in short. When the kids were younger, when they had a cough, it was automatic, give cough meds. But since we had consulted an otolaringologist a few years back, he said that not all coughs should be treated with cough meds but with colds and allergies meds. In our case he said that our cough was due to post nasal drip. When we drink cough medicine, it forces us to cough more when there is nothing to expel. Our throat is just irritated. His advice to us is always mind our noses.
