Throat irritation

2018-05-02 17:48:09
As tickly throat and dry coughs produce little or no mucus, they are non-productive coughs, distinct from chesty coughs. Dry coughs result from an irritation in the throat (pharynx) and the cough is triggered to relieve the irritation.2 months I have taken montek LC for 2 week now and I have no cough but still the slight itchiness in throat. My question here is. Is this the symptoms of Asthma/bronchitis/dust allergy. Can : PFT + chest x-ray Radiology -CT Scan-PNS (if required) Confirm this ?

You seem to have had post viral cough which is common type of dry cough syndrome after an attack of viral upper respiratory tract infection. Usually it will resolve on its own within few days. Since it has reduced significantly now no further treatment is required. It is definitely not related to asthma or bronchitis
Next Steps
Consult nearby pulmonologist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
