Since your tests are normal and only IgE is high, your cough and throat irritation are most likely due to allergic airway disease (allergic asthma or allergic bronchitis) rather than infection.
This is common and can cause long-lasting cough and restlessness.
Next Steps
with the right inhaler medicines and allergen control, this can be completely managed.
