Throat is the meeting point or junction connecting nose, mouth, ears(via eustachian tubes), lungs and stomach (via esophagus). Cough is a reflex that occurs when your body senses that some fluid is trying to enter your lungs via your larynx (voice box).
Normally this could be from all the other 4 regions mentioned above. Cough can also occur is guide is already in lungs and your body is trying to expel it.
A good ENT Specialist should clinically ascertain where this fluid is originating and not just prescribe unnecessary antibiotics for every cough!
