Your recurring dry cough may be due to allergies, postnasal drip, asthma or acid reflux. Since it keeps returning, a proper evaluation is needed to find the cause and give long-term relief.

There can be many causes for dry cough like acid reflux, allergy, post nasal drip. Get a thorough evaluation from an ENT specialist comprising nasal endoscopy, throat examination and if needed laryngeal endoscopy also. You can adopt few changes like modification of diet, less consumption of tea/coffee and adequate hydration.
