It could be either infection or allergy.

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Greetings from Dr.Divakara.P
Thanks for posting your query.

Cough indicates either Infection of throat or Lung or Allergy. I need more information to decide what is the cause of your cough.

1. Is it a dry cough or productive cough?
2. Is there any irritation or pain in your throat?
3. Is there any fever ?
4. Do you have any breathing difficulty ?

As of now it seems like a allergic cough. I advice you to get a prescription for Montair Lc and use it . Also do salt water gargling 3-4 times per day, drink hot water, eat less oily food , avoid non veg food and avoid citrus fruits.

Kindly revert back with details asked.

With respect to the questions asked, my answers are below:

1. It was a dry cough when it started but gradually it became productive as well. I had wheezing symptoms and difficulty in breathing.
2. Yes there was throat pain until this Friday when I began taking Tusqx syrup and LorfastAM and SN15.
3. Yes there is low grade fever intermittently - 99.6 kinds
4. I was having quite a bit of difficulty over the past few days and it seemed the breathing passage was somewhat constricting. Also this is the first time I have experienced this and wheezing.

HI XXXX

Thanks for the information.

It seems like you are having Bacterial Throat infection along with Bronchitis.

You need to be started o Antibiotics along with Bronchodilator medications.

My recommendation is to get started on Azithromycin antibiotic and acebrophylline Bronchodilator. Kindly get a prescription of these from your doctor.

Also follow the diet advice and gargling.

Hope this information was useful to you.
