I'm worried about my mom. She keeps feeling like there's something stuck in her throat. It's not painful, and there aren't any visible lumps that we can see, but she does get some phlegm in the morning. She's already tried anti-allergy and gastric medicines based on the doctor's advice, but nothing seems to work. What else could it be, and what can we do to help her feel better?

I'm dealing with a wet throat pretty often lately and sometimes I get a cough in the morning or evening. I saw a general physician, did a chest X-ray, blood test, and spit test, and everything came back normal. I've been on medicine for 10 days, but I don't feel like it's getting any better. Could you help me figure out what's going on?
Consider consulting an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist for further evaluation, as a wet throat and persistent cough despite normal tests and medication may indicate underlying conditions like acid reflux, postnasal drip, or allergies; the ENT specialist can perform a thorough examination, potentially using endoscopy or allergy testing, to identify the root cause and recommend targeted treatment.
