I have been coughing at night for weeks now. Mostly at night. I will be fine and then go into a coughing fit. I use sugar-free cough drops that surpress it but as soon as it is gone the cough returns. I have heard that heartburn medicine can cause a cough. Is this the kind of cough it causes?

He is 45 years old. He loves the Big Mac and eats it late at night (10PM). What is the physiology behind the heartburn?

i mean like the feeling not like what the actaul differance is…
