Hi, I have a cough which has been persisting for the last 4 weeks. I get sudden bouts after which it subsides and some intermediate minor irritable cough. Have this irritation in my throat and get flem sometimes when I get these bouts of cough. Irritations and bouts of cough are more in the mornings. I smoke about 5 cigarettes a week. Otherwise have a healthy lifestyle, I workout regularly and eat healthy and am at an almost optimum BMI. I have not taken any allopathic medicines so far to control it. Except a few gargles with Betadin on a few occasions but which did not help much. Please advice. Thanks in advance.
