Dry Cough Is Due To Stress Or Infection?
hello, in December 2010 I had a chest infection with a very bad cough. I still have the cough but I've now been diagnosed with depression - I only cough now (dry hacking cough) when I associate it with the stress that has caused my depression - is this a stress cough or would I still have the infection from Dec 2010?

Hi
No i think this cough is related to the stress not the last infection.You should be treated well for the depression and than to monitor the cough.
