I've had a tickly cough for a couple of days and am unable to sleep at night. I am coughing up very small amounts of phlegm only, have a very slightly runny nose and started a few days ago with a slight sore/dry throat. I had something similar a few months ago. Not being able to sleep at night even though I am propped up on pillows. It is most frustrating.

The symptoms you describe are surprisingly common.

The inflammation in your nasal passages is causing an increase in natural secretions and this is dripping into the back of your throat, causing irritation and cough.

Bronchosan Pine Cough syrup should help clear this up for you.
