Hi.

Your history suggests an allergic problem. You seem to have post-nasal drip causing cough. Do you get frequent sneezes or nose blocks as well?

Take your medicine for adequate duration, may be 2 weeks or so. A spirometry will be useful to rule out associated bronchitis. Be away from triggers, especially smokes and dust.

Hi,
Thanks for query,
As you have cough since one month and all reports are normal so most probably you have got allergic cough.
But as you have throat congestion is there possibility of having mixed infection can not be ruled out.
So go for antibiotic course and cough suppressant syrup.
Avoid fried,spicy and junk food.
ok and bye.
