Dry cough doubt

2020-04-15 16:01:31
I have a dry cough before starting the covid 19 in India. And every doctor told me its a acid reflux cough and taking antacid and PPI symptoms get better but some day its started and that whole day I am think about that cough and different thinks comes in mind of its corona cough or what etc etc. So my question is how to differentiate acid reflux cough and Corona cough. I dont have any other symptoms nor travel history. Please answer..
