[|Human|] i have a chronic cough that wont go away. I also have allergies but I take an allergy pill everyday. I had a head and chest cold in November but cant get rid of this chronic occasional cough about every 15 minutes. The problem is my cough is very load like a snapping sound and my phlegm taste like chlorine. What could be causing this?
[|AI|]  HelloSign you mentioned that cough is from three months, however occasionally. Expectoration (phlegm) taste like chlorine, so this may be due to Yeast infection. Get in sputum (phlegm) examination for confirmation. The reason of cough may be asthmatic allergic bronchitis, as you are already taking treatment for allergy. So this type of cough is an indication of asthma. The next reason may be bronchiectasis, diagnosis can be confirmed by X-ray chest and sputum examination. In my opinion consult a pulmonologist and get his opinion. Good luck.
