Coughing but unable to swallow, making a humming sound

Doctor's answer:

It may be caused by tonsillitis, and the main treatment is with antibiotics. The medication should be taken in sufficient dosage and duration. Some traditional Chinese medicine oral medications that clear heat and detoxify, as well as alleviate symptoms, can be used as a supplement. Avoid spicy, alcoholic, and cold foods, which are irritating. If the effect is not good, hospitalization for tonsillectomy may be necessary.
