I am a 22 year old female. I have been having some cough problem for over 10 years now, anytime I see a doctor i'm told it's no big deal that it's just atopy but I know very well it's way more than that. The back of y throat itches often and I produce mucus often. I have stressed my throat so much that I now feel pains around it I cough almost every time to clear my throat and at times when I do, especially at night, my chest starts itching, it itches me so much inside just a bit below my sternum and more to the right side that I cough the more to relieve it, and at times I hit it with my hand to get relief. This scared my mom a lot and i've complained to so many doctors who keep telling me it's mere allergy. The itchy sensation lasts for hours before subsiding for another episode some other day. At times too I feel pains in my heart like it's being hit with something. I need urgent help please, I used to use antibiotics whenever I have the itchy chest and I feel relieved a bit but I had to stop the use when I noticed it only relieved it but never really cured it. I don't know what to do anymore.
