Swelling in throat and intense dry cough
I am having intense dry cough since last 2 weeks.
Feel heaviness in chest. Have continuous coughing for few mins without any phlegm.
Feel difficulty breathing while taking stairs, doing minor work.
No fever as such but feel lethargic. Cough is more at night. My 1 year old also has similar cough.
I took Azithromycin and levocitrizine for 3 days, no effect.
