Dry and frequent cough
Hey,
I am having frequent dry cough for around 1 month now. I have consulted couple of doctors when it got high and caused fever. I some times have pain while swallowing.
I would like to have a detailed diagnosis for the problem. Medicines given by previous doctors are not helping... Whom should I consult for the best?

Hi.... Rest. Get plenty of sleep and rest your voice.
Drink fluids. Drink plenty of water to keep the throat moist and prevent dehydration.
Try comforting foods and beverage. Warm liquids — broth, caffeine-free tea or warm water with honey — and cold treats such as ice pops can soothe a sore throat.
Gargle saltwater. A saltwater gargle of 1 teaspoon. Gargle the solution and then spit it out....
