Dry cough and thoart irritation
I had a dry cough for month and I consulted the doctor and he said : no issues in particular but pricribed montek lc with salt water gargle at night. And it did work well.
But when I stopped medicine after a week. 2 days later when I'm exposed to dust . I had the same symptom.
But this time it's more throat irritation and occasional wheezing ( only at the peak of thoart irritation) but no dry cough instead I cough because of throat irritation.
I have no breathing issues.What is this symptoms

You seem to be suffering from allergic airway disorder which may require treatment with anti Histamine medicines (montek lc) and steroid bronchodialator inhalers for long term benefits. Usually this is a seasonal problem and within few months your symptoms may settle down
Next Steps
Consult nearby pulmonologist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
