Prolonged Cough

2020-08-16 15:28:45
I am having some cough for more than a month now. I have been also  taking some cough syrup - Cherycof & then Grilinictus. Taking cough syrup keeps it at bay but as and when I stop taking it. It starts again. Not very severe but every now and then. I don't have any other issue. The cough is not very dry. What should I do?
