To save myself from the irritation and cough and its effects reduces a bit , atleast tears don come , or i stretch my neck backwards or press throat where irritation occurs ... dat helps to reduce the irritation levels that it creates .

"A cleaner society often means more allergies. Levels of asthma have increased in affluent societies, whereas they have not kept up the same pace in less industrialized nations. One hypothesis for this discrepancy is the “hygiene hypothesis.” As people become cleaner by introducing major sanitation practices, the prevalence of allergies and asthma tend to increase. That’s because a cleaner society—which takes advantage of sanitation technologies, disinfectants, antibacterial products, and antibiotics—wipes out the many “good bugs” (like probiotics, for instance) needed to maintain a healthy and robust immune system.
Artificially removing healthy microorganisms from the environment disrupts the relationship between humans and “good bugs” essential for optimal health.
The overuse of antibiotics can lead to allergies. Recent research indicates that a disruption in intestinal flora due to the overuse of antibiotics may lead to changes throughout the entire immune system. Therefore, food sensitivities and allergies may increase."

What you should do then is work to make your environment more healthy to your body than to continue as it is. What you can do is you should filter out your air so that it no longer has these harmful particles in it. I found that a Polarized Media Filter (which is a whole house filter that uses your furnace's air patterns) will take care of these excess particles as well as control the smell.
I used to have problems with the air in my home, but after speaking with a colleague of mine, she directed me to this type of filter. After doing a bit of research I decided it was a good bet as the system actually made sense. I found that the problems I had before no longer appeared. So I would definitely suggest this to you.
The best place for price I've found is at www.airlifeone.com. It is cheapest when you look for the Electrobreeze brand, which they have two types of filters, but as I understand the other product is not really any different save in a higher price.
Well, I hope that this helps.
