Dry cough since a month
I had a cold about a month ago and took OTC medicines and the cold got over in a week but slowly I started getting dry cough and recently it has increased, I don't know what's the reason is it because I took medicine soon. Also in case I need to consult a doctor is it better to consult ENT specialist or general physician.
