Chronic cough without any other symptoms
Hello,
My mother have been suffering from chronic dry cough with habit of throat clearing .She doesn't have any other symptoms such as wheezing or other breathing problems.
The cough usually stays for 1-2 weeks and eventually goes away. she doesn't cough frequently and it goes away after 2 weeks and comes back after a gap of 1-2 months.
Is it something serious .? Or any thing related to allergy?
Thanks
