Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Sore throat for 4 weeks is a long time to suffer.
You did took the treatment, got alright to an extent but the coughing is still there.
As you have asked for:
Yes you should seek for another opinion of an another ENT Surgeon.

There is a lot of things you can do and avoid also;
- Nasal decongestant drops
- Steam inhalations
- Avoid blowing nose
- Take bed rest.
- Avoid all the allergens, scents, pets.

This will help early and complete recovery when you take proper antibiotics and supportive medicines given by your ENT.
