I am 62 years old and for the past 2 to 3 months I get cough during day time as well as night. Even after taking cough syrup it did not go. I want to know what is the real reason for this. Kindly inform me. Thanks.

It may be allergic cough. Check if there is some construction work going on near by. You can take vitamin C tablets to reduce the allergic tendency. For a permanent result, consult a homoeopath. Consult privately if needed.

Hi lybrate-user, as the cough is of long duration you have to go for blood tests and X-Ray chest. After that you consult your Physician.
