Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of chronic cough which is due to upper respiratory track infection leading to bronchitis/ granular pharyngitis. Ear itchiness is due to left over upper respiratory tract infection which travels to ear by Eustachian tube. I would suggest you to do warm saline gargles and take steam twice a day. Avoid use of sharp and spicy food substances. Avoid cold carbonated beverages. Your symptoms will resolve in 1 week. if symptoms keeps on persisting you should consult ENT specialist and take proper treatment. You should get X-ray chest done along with pulmonary function tests. Doctor may prescribe antibiotics ( amoxicillin or penicillin ) at least for 5 days along with decongestant.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
