Why is my throat itchy with sticky saliva?
Patient's Query
I have hard cough and it's so itchy in my throat and white sticky saliva only stuck on my throat and it's so long to recover for 4 weeks to 1 month.
Answered by Dr. Babita Goel
Persistent cough and itchy throat could be due to a few reasons, like a lingering viral infection or possibly a postnasal drip irritating your throat. The white sticky saliva could be due to dehydration or even a mild infection. In fact, these symptoms can take some time to clear up, but there are things you can do to help ease them. Make sure to stay hydrated, try using a humidifier, and consider using lozenges to soothe your throat. If it continues for much longer, it might be a good idea to see a physician for further evaluation.
