Symptom #7: Chronic Cough
If you experience GERD when you’re sleeping, then you might actually develop a chronic cough. This cough can keep you awake at night or continue to bother you during the day.
This is a response to the uncomfortable sensation of having a burning or tickling in your throat. You will cough in an attempt to get rid of this sensation. This is generally a sign that your GERD is chronic and should be addressed.
