Uncomfortable Sensation When Breathing Accompanied By Itching In The Throat

Hello Laksmita,

Thank you for the question.

An uncomfortable sensation when breathing with itching in the throat may indicate disturbances in your respiratory tract, for example due to allergies (such as dust mites, cold, pollen), irritation (such as smoke, pollution, dry air), infections (such as viruses, bacteria), gastric acid reflux (for example in patients with GERD or gastritis), pharyngitis, bronchitis, pneumonia, psychosomatic disorders, side effects of drugs, and so on.

If your complaint can still be alleviated in the following way, chances are your condition is not dangerous:

 Compress warm your chest and neck Try not to leave the house, unless urgent (besides being able to avoid allergens and irritation of the airways, this action can also minimize your risk of exposure to diseases, including COVID-19) Diligent in exercising and doing breathing exercises (for example yoga , swimming, tai chi) Don't be too late to eat Reduce consumption of foods or drinks that contain gas, artificial sweetness, and cold Stay away from cigarettes Calm your mind and heart, don't get stressed In an outbreak condition like now, if you have a mild medical disorder, you It is recommended to prioritize independent handling at home so that your risk of contracting the disease can be minimized. However, if the complaint still does not improve with the steps above, you should not delay checking yourself to the nearest doctor or doctor of internal medicine huh ..

I hope this helps.
