You might be suffering from post viral cough which is common cause for dry cough after an attack of viral upper respiratory tract infection. Usually it is a self resolving condition and you may need to take symptomatic treatment. Take dry cough syrup, strepsils lozenges and steam inhalation
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
