Suggest Remedy For Dry Cough
Hello to whom answers this. I have a very bad dry cough that kills my throat. But it only hurts when I cough. I feels like my throat is burning or someone is scraping it with a razor blade. The pain is mostly in my lower throat near my esophagus. I have a very stuffy nose as well. It feels like I have mucus stuck in my throat that just does not want to dislodge when I cough. I have been to doctor and he tells me I don t have any infection. So what could be causing this?

Hi! Thanks for your query. I suggest that your dry cough is due to some ALLERGENS which are found all round you. This is an Allergic reaction which is troubling you and foremost I suggest you to go to your family doctor and ask him for Anti Helmenthics (Deworming). This will give you quite relief and I suggest you take Tab.Cetrizine 10mgs daily for a week and see. Wish you a speedy recovery.
