Hi

Dry and chesty cough usually occurs due to allergic reasons.Any allergic irritant or respiratory tract infection can cause cough.I would suggest you to take complete blood counts,chest x-ray or CT in order to identify the cause.

Meanwhile I would suggest you to take antihistamine cough syrup and montelukast tablet at night for 5 to 7 days.Steam inhalation and chewing medicated lozenges can reduce dryness in your throat.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
