Liver cirrhosis can cause 1.accumulation of fluid in the abdomen which is called ascites and also swelling in the legs called pedal edema.
2.the dry cough is an indication pf heart involvement as the cirrhosis progresses. To rule out and find if it is not heart, an echo is required ti check the workload on the heart. Kndly consult your cardiologist and haematologist asap.

Dry cough is a cough where no phlegm or mucus is produced. A dry cough is irritating and usually associated with a tickly throat. Dry coughs are often caused by viral illnesses such as colds and flu, but they can also be caused by allergies or throat irritants. Let's have a detailed discussion to ensure proper treatment.

hello lybrate user.

causes of chronic dry cough can be due to lung causes like infections, pleural causes like effusions etc. or upper respiratory causes like sinusitis, throath infections, post nasal drip and other causes like allergic bronchitis or rhinitis.

or GERD.

WE need to rule out other causes and treat the cause of dry cough for relief.

take care.
