Summary

Alpine 41997 reported a cough that lasted two months. They described a severe cough that bruised their ribs and a later throat tickle. Halls cough drops soothed the throat, and Benadryl, recommended by a doctor, helped the cough a lot, especially at night. A throat tickle followed the cough.
