Severe dry cough
It appears that there is etching in the throat which is causing severe incessant dry cough for a week. Saline water gurgling provides relief temporarily. Can underlying cause may be lungs infection or bronchitis? Or throat infection /pharyngitis should be suspected.
Best possible treatment for immediate relief may please be shared.
