General & Family Physician, Dr. Dr. Parth Goswami's Response

Hello,

You are having a cough due to respiratory tract irritation.

For that, you can be prescribed the antihistaminic drug.

If your cough worsens than I suggest you to investigate with chest digital x-ray and spirometry for further workup.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Parth Goswami, General & Family Physician
