Thank you for the query. Dry cough usually occurs as a result of allergic response or it may be a viral infection at times. I suppose there is no fever as you have not mentioned about it. Steam inhalation thrice a day will help in moistening the airways. A number of antiallergic tablets are available which may help. Specific cough syrups are also available. However, if the cough persists for more than a week or yellowish sputum is produced then further assessment may be needed. Regards.
