Cough

I am male 25. 3-4 days before, i was down with cold. Now cold is healing but i m coughing too much. most of the times cough is dry. Mucus is forming very less but its sticky and too thick.
I am also feeling stiffy nose.
I am taking some herbal Cough syrup (Dabur honeytus)
I guess its slow on cough.
Last nite, i coughed so hard, that i was breathing & feeling irritation & coughing regularly. I took honeytus syrup & cough stopped.
P.S i am inhaling cavrol plus on steam too..

Please suggest some cough sirup, as it feels very useasy..
& i dont want to cough agaian last nite..

Hello and hope you are doing well.

Upper respiratory infections can lead to a post nasal drip. This can cause an irritation in the throat. For this you can take OTC antihistamines like benadryl and use anti inflammatory medications. Continue with steam inhalations. However, if it persists consult your doctor to rule out a lower respiratory infection.

Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
