Acid Reflux
Acid reflux or gastroesophageal reflux disease occurs when acid leaks back from your stomach up to the food pipe, also known as the esophagus. Up to 40% of people with this condition experience a dry cough for an extended period. This is because acid would irritate your throat and trigger the issue. In addition, it might lead to many other gastrointestinal symptoms, such as vomiting, nausea, heartburn, bad breath, or difficulty swallowing. [7]
