Hi XXXXX,
Thanks for the query.

I have read your query and understand your concern.

As per your clinical history it is most probably allergic post nasal discharge giving rise to dry cough with itching and scaly feeling in the throat.

If I were your treating Doctor for this case , home remedy I would advice
Steam Inhalation twice daily,

It will give relief .

Dabur Honitus can be given to child of 2 year age but only 2-3/day .
