Coughing from last 6-7 months
Hello Doctors, I am facing coughing(Not a dry cough) issue for the past 6-7months mostly when I eat something which is cold, like some kind of fruit or curd or something similar.
Initial diagnosis was allergy and I took medicines like:
1. Pan-L capsules for 10 days.(once a day)
2. Telekast-L tablets for 10 days.(once a day)
3. Defcort12 tablets for 3 days (2twice a day)
But it didn't help that much.
I do feel itching on my throat and right after that I start coughing. Also, when I do gargle using luke warm water it does help me to reduce the coughing. Please help.
