I had a cough and cold a few weeks ago and am left with a tickly cough and a weird metallic sort of taste in my mouth. Any ideas?

Could be your sinuses from the cold, possibly a bit of blood (the iron is the metal you taste) from your nose feeling irritated etc....could also be blood from other sources eg your gums.

Having a cough or sore throat could cause impaired taste.

Are you on any medications or other vitamins,supplements or similar?

If it doesn't clear up soon then get it checked out.
