Dry cough since a long time
My mother is having a dry cough since a very long time. We had consulted a physician before but he said it may be because of some allergy. The prescribed medicine doesn't seem to work and it gets cured on its own after a specific duration but keeps occuring again. The dry cough lasts for almost 15-20 days and usually happens when she speaks to someone or on the phone due to itching in the throat. There's no other symptoms other than itching. What could be the reason of the cough? What specialist should we take her to ?
