Brief Answer:
You are having allergic PND with dry cough.

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX ,
Welcome to HealthcareMagic forum .

After reading your clinical history it appears that you are having allergic post nasal discharge (PND) causing dry cough.

If I were your treating Doctor for this case , I would advice you
Steam Inhalation twice daily, Saline nasal spray thrice daily ,
Antiseptic Mouth Wash twice daily , Plenty of fluids &
Antihistaminic levocetirizine + Montelukast combination tablet at night till allergy subside .

You cough will subsides .

Hope this information helpful to you .If you have any further questions I will be happy to help.
