Cough at your age which is dry 95% of cases is either due to viral fever which sometimes affect your upper airways or throat or nose or due to allergic cough as you are an allergic person or you have developed what we call post viral infection allergic bronchitis. Both will go away on its own. You cough with your chest muscles and they under go sprain with constant cough. To suppress your cough any cough suppressant across the counter is as good as natural remedies like throat lozenges; warm saline gargle, etc. Do not smoke. For you chest pain hot water bath and hot fomentation is as good as paracetamol tablet. Doing nothing for your viral fever induced cough is also ok. But for allergic cough consult if it persists for a few weeks. If cough is bothersome do consult to rule out any 5% major problem and also for your peace of mind. You should be ok.
