Oral Benadryl syrup will help.
Detailed Answer:
Hello, Sir
I can certainly understand your concern.
I have worked through your query in detail.
Cough in your case need to be effectively treated.
I generally prescribe oral syrup of Benadryl 5ml thrice a day for 5-7 days.
This will help to normalise the cough.
In case if cough doesn't resolve after after 7 days, I advise you to go for a chest X-ray.
Post your further queries if any.
Thank you.
