Suggest remedy for itchy dry cough
Patient: Hi doctor Iam having severe cough since 10days..it is dry cough n more frequent at night..itching is present at throat but there is no fever...I have taken syrup rapitus fr 4days n taken tab.azithromycin fr 3 days and preaently on ambrodil syrup...but still cough s irritating..the more I take breath, more will b da cough. Doctor: Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic. I can understand your concern. In my opinion we should rule out bronchitis in your case. You are not improving with drugs, this suggest possibility of bronchitis. And bronchitis is very common after upper respiratory tract infection (URTI). So get done PFT (Pulmonary Function Test) for the diagnosis of bronchitis. It will also tell you about severity of the disease and treatment of bronchitis is based on severity only. You may need inhaled bronchodilators and inhaled corticosteroid with antihistamine drugs. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
