Medical - Medical (general) / respiratory system
Italian term or phrase: raschiarsi
-Secchezza delle mucose respiratorie con continua necessità di raschiarsi e secreto vischioso

Does "raschiarsi" look odd here, or is it my lack of Italian? Bear in mind that this text was full of typos, but this looks "genuine"
