Hello there. I can understand your concern. First of, you need to understand that cough is never normal. Its a protective phenomenon which happens when there is some danger to the airways. Secondly, a medical shop fellow is not a doctor. Sometimes they do not even have a pharma degree. Consult a physician for further help. Best regards. Dr. Anil Kumar jain.
