A dry cough lasting 10 months at age 73 needs proper evaluation; homeopathy alone is not enough. Causes can include asthma/COPD, reflux, medication effects, infection or other lung disease. Please arrange a chest examination, chest X-ray and review of all medicines, especially if there is weight loss, fever, breathlessness or blood. You may book a Practo consult or meet me at Synergy Multispeciality Hospital, Miraj.
Next Steps
Please arrange an in-person chest evaluation and X-ray soon; seek urgent care if breathing worsens or blood appears.

A dry cough for 10 months needs evaluation, especially with a history of 3 coronary stents.
It can be due to GERD, asthma, post-nasal drip, or medication-related cough.
Do not stop cardiac medications on your own.
Next Steps
Follow-up: Review with the treating doctor after the initial evaluation or earlier if symptoms worsen. Seek urgent care for breathlessness, chest pain, coughing blood, or low oxygen saturation.
Health Tips
Caution:
Avoid spicy, oily and acidic foods, especially at night.
Avoid lying down for 2–3 hours after meals.
Stay well hydrated and avoid smoke/dust exposure.
