Chronic Cough and outside of mouth numbness

[KellKell40]

I have had a chronic cough for the past 7 1/2 yrs, and I have been to two ENT doctors and one family doctor, and so far, nothing is being done for me about the cough.  I was diagnosed with having grade B Esophagitis, and a slight Hiatal Hernia, when I had an outpatient procedure done in the hospital in Oct, 2009.  It feels as though there is something grainy way down deep in my throat that causes me to cough constantly.  One of the ENT doctors told me in Dec., 2009 that my vocal chords were swollen.  I also get an odor coming up from down there.  I especially notice the odor after I drink some water.  Now, ever since sometime in Feb., 2010, I have been getting a cobwebby and numbness type of feeling on the outside of the left side of my mouth, and like a crawling sensation there and like a hair is brushing up against my face.  Also, on Friday, February 12, 2010, my lower lip feels odd now.  Whenever I draw my lower lip taut, it feels like a string is being pulled against my lower lip.

Dear Friend,
Many thanks for posting the question via my forum. What i feel is that,in this case an ENT surgeon only will be able to help you our,rather than the neurosurgeon. All the problems are interlinked and once your cough and vocal cord related issues are resolved, you will find that ,all the other problems are getting resolved by itself. My medicines/advice here will not help out out here as this is an entirely different etiology involved.
However if you need my help,i am always available and you need to discuss with me, your consultation with your ENT doctor.
I hope you got the point.
Regards.....
