asthma oxygen treatment

Dry/raspy feeling beneath throat…?
Went to the ER the other night. They gave me a shot of some steroid to help “open up my lungs” along with a breathing treatment and took xrays. My oxygen level was 97 when I left and hadn’t been that low. I had pneumonia before, so I am very careful with these things (explaining why I went to the ER).
It feels like there is something in/beneath my throat. This happened to me before when I used my inhaler (it irritates me sometimes). I used it last week.
For some reason, though, when I breathe through my mouth it sounds raspy and when I try to “cough up”: whatever might be in there, there seems to be nothing.
Does anyone have any ideas? I have asthma brought on by the pneumonia from two years ago, but I have never had an ‘attack’.
My xrays looked clear, no infection.. nothing weird. I just feel so dry and raspy.
The raspiness feels deeper than my throat. But not like.. to my lungs. If that makes sense :/. When I cough, or try to cough, it up.. I sound hoarse.
It may be the beginning of a cold. Gargle with salt water.
