Talk to General Physician on Dry Cough Fits Not Ending

person-avatar

Asking For Self, Male 29, Rawalpindi

Hi, I have a dry cough fits (normally 1-2 times in a day) that can last for 30-40 mins and then go away.

Also, when I get these cough fits I can hear this weird sound im my chest while breathing.

Duration: 3-4 weeks

I have tried 4 different cough syrups: 1. Some OTC syrup 2. Dr Koff 3. Ivy Leaf something 4. Inventive (about 25% left)

Last one perhaps helped some but it's not going completely and it's really becoming an inconvenience abd exhausting.

What should I do about it?

Pls advise.

Many thanks and good day!

No, thankfully not. Just coughing a lot and then it goes away it self. But during that time I can also hear sounds while breathing in my chest.

Per my consultation with others, they said these are called "coughing fits" as they happen intensely after intervals. So, should I go by your advise in original post?
