Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of dry cough which seems to be due to chest infection and it could be due to chronic upper respiratory tract infection.
Need not to worry. I would suggest you to

Is The Dosage Of Two Teaspoons Of Dinatapp Drug Right For Dry Cough?
Hi Dear, Welcome to HCM. Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of dry cough which seems to be due to chest infection and it could be due to chronic upper respiratory tract infection. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to - Do warm saline gargles and take cough expectorants. - Take antibiotic Levofloxacin in combination with antiallergic medication. - Yes you can start with two teaspoons of Dimetapp as well. - Avoid oily and sharp food. Drink plenty of fluids. Visit pulmonologist once and get it examined completely. You should get chest X-ray done and start treatment after proper diagnosis have been made. Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
